RE: OCSP - Public Key Dstribution

Certificate Domain is some kind of indication of what kind of certificate(s)
you want to validate. I.e. like SET-certificates, a National ID-card, OBI-trader etc.
This could be of interest in both the request and in the response. I.e. a trusted OCSP
server may support overlapping or disjunct domains and a typical subscriber
may be interested in just one type. To standardize this seems unnecessary
in the same sense as defining trust models in OCSP. It is a *deployment* issue
like certificate policies and liabilities.
Other extensions, like certificate validation might be considered
once OCSP is closed.
I assume that the "closing" of OCSP will be pretty theoretical when the definition
of extensions starts. Already an IETF agenda item it seems
