ummm --- ok - I had one person who appeared at the booth 
decline to give his name -- no problem, but also no cacert ID 
;)   Ultimately a web of trust, needs to be trustable, and as 
I see it, has to chain back to an ID which carries a penal 
disincentive to forge.

role accounts are no problem - there is a primary email 
address, and the ability to add as many secondaries as you may 
wish; also as the CSR is gnereated locally, embedded role 
email addresses insude a certificate are no problem, and are 
not examined before the countersigning by CACert.
