HI!

IMHO it would be very handy...

1. if one could use the command

  openssl req -name [CA section]

to specify the CA definition for which the certificate request is
generated.

2. to have a parameter named "req" (similar to "policy") in a CA section
to specify a section with the request template (instead of using
"openssl req -config" with a separate file which has nothing to do with
a CA definition).

3. if the *_default in [ req_distinguished_name ] could be a comma
separated list of options, e.g.

  organizationalUnitName_default = Dept 1.,Administration,Human
Resources

should only give the possibility to choose from the given options.

(pyCA will use this features 2. and 3. ;-)

Ciao, Michael.
