On a related topic: Does anyone know who has authority to generate
public/private key pairs for a c=US state?

I don't expect that most states are prepared to do so, but it would be
helpful to have such key pairs when constructing a certification
hierarchy for residential persons. We're interested in getting such a
hierarchy started.
