Agreed.  Even though, I believe easy-rsa 3 will become better in this
aspect.

I used tinyca2 for some time ... until I discovered xca.  I could even
import all the stuff created in tinaca2 with some efforts.  With xca,
I have also setup a template which I use to generate new certificates
for OpenVPN - which provides enough information to put the right info
at the right places fairly easy too.

The only downside I've had with xca is that sometimes the data format
changes, which makes some upgrades cumbersome.  xca stores all the
data inside a single encrypted file.  Which on the other hand makes it
more suitable to be put on an offline storage.
