x.509 v3 Certificates and Compatbility

[brad h <bradh_1998@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have a question that the group might be able to help me out with. 
I've been researching this question but have not yet been able to come
up with an answer.

I was wondering why a person would have to have more than one x.509 v3
certificate?  From what I understand they should all be inter-operable.

If you have a x.509 v3 cert shouldn't you be able to add extensions
for each type of device/solution that you're trying to access (ex.
SSL, S/Mime, VPN, PKI, etc.)?
