Remember how we got here!  The TAMP document included a trust anchor format, and it was suggested that the format be extracted so that other protocols might be able to take advantage of them.  These fields seem to be related to a protocol environment.  I do not think they should be included in the draft-ietf-pkix-ta-format document.
