Sorry for the late response.  That feature looks attractive, but not
feasible at this state.  I am still running .24 version of puppet which is
working great (although performance could be slightly better!) and I wasn't
looking to do an upgrade to .25 for at least a month or two as bugs iron
out.

Essentially my setup consists of a central git server and a puppetmaster in
our main site.  In my remote locations I have two puppetmasters running in a
cluster using a VIP for its IP address.  Since the physical hostname could
potentially change during a failover situation along with the keys not being
there (I could put the ssl certs on shared storage or sync them from hostA
to hostB via rsnapshot via cron) I will end up running into issues with the
certs.

The question I have is what is the best way to manage SSL certs in a more
distributed fashion by using a shared certificate.  I don't want to rely on
a single instance of puppetmasterd to provide certs as that is a SPOF to me
and since my remote sites are distant on the network my preference is to use
the local hostA and hostB servers as puppetmasters and ssl servers with
direct git clones (git pull when a major commit is tested in
development/lab).  I also use autosign so certs get created on demand.
