i really hate to side with dr kent :)

i am unsure of this is a useful work item.  please explain how it is
other than a complex (i.e. dangerous) patch to accommodate sloppy
operational praactices by a CA.  

make the protocol complex and you are vulnerable forever.  sloppy CA
ops practices can always be remedied.  so which is the worse problem?
