currently you can pass in the password for the key file with the -passin option, but there is no other way to pass in the actual key data other than providing the file name from the -sign parameter.

Having an option to pass in the key file data from a variable, stdin, etc similar to how the -passin option is used would be useful.

IE
openssl dgst -sha256 -keyin "key:$r" -sign "data.bin"
