Yes, unluckily, nothing more has been written yet. Please bear with us.

Well spotted, I've just committed a patch.

Yes, generating a key, creating a CA certificate for this key and then
importing the certificate (and any root CA certificates if this is a sub
CA) would be the recommended approach. Use aliases to link the CA
certificate configured in your config.xml to the one in your database
(openxpkiadm certificate alias). You should then have a working CA,
but to actually use it to issue a certificate, you will still need to
unlock the CA key (login as CA Operator on the web interface) ...

HTH,
    Alex
