I suggest you start writing the core. You can then make the key
available as a plug-in, much much later. For example, some people will
want to use larger keys, different algorithms, secure storage, while
others won't.
I'm thinking about similar thingie, but key generation is the least of
my trouble. The fact that the OS and perhaps all other applications can
search the hard drives for the key, and send it somewhere, troubles me
much more. As well as many other things.
General recommendation: If you cannot solve a problem, make it a plugin.
