Never had an issue, ever, with a LEO when I've explained where my wallet is before reaching to get it. They understand your concern and appreciate the respect. The same would apply for ladies who carry a handgun in their purse.

In the situation with open carrying a firearm, I would think that your response and body language upon contact would tell them pretty much everything they need to know. A bad guy open carrying would presumably have a much different response when asked about having a CHL. It may take some adjustment time and maybe some funny/awkward stories - especially from LEO's uncomfortable with OC - but for the most part, I think this will become a non-issue. Just make sure to clearly communicate, keep your hands visible, and follow a LEO's commands about how he wants you to retrieve your license. LEO's will receive training on the issue as well.
