I don't know. Why can't it? What protocol can it use that is well deployed?
The RA can do that signalling. You just need to define the protocol.

I'd love to define that protocol.
But, we thought CSRattrs was that protocol.
Why did you think that? I can see a "it's there and we can tweak it
to do this
weird thing we want to do" but I don't understand why one would think
that CSRattrs
was designed for that.
If the RA knows what information the CA needs in order to construct a
certificate
then it should just tell the CA.
