Certificates are perhaps a little more flexible in 4.6, but I know there were workarounds in 4.4 for people who wanted to use a cert from the AD server. I would have followed those threads. However, I do think one of the forward looking things to do with sipx would be to integrate to other cloud based platforms (whether it be O365, GoogleApps, Zimbra, etc.). Zimbra would perhaps be easiest, but it is also perhaps the least attractive in terms of its architecture (hp OM), becuase of storage and backup and "regular old maintenance routines). Google is least expensive and simpler for users, but there are limitations in the guise of "what" Google will allow you to do with their message stores, etc. I see it compelling to fix the address book portal to bring in the users google contacts and harness it for click to call, as simpler, cleaner, and less for the system (sipx) to store or sync, it can be pulled in live. If gtalk can be harnessed to mirror your sipx IM state, that goes a long way too. It would also be cool to see if there was a way to use a vmail destination as a google voice account for users. If these things can be done in O365 then super dee duper.
I've seen where sipx came from "way back when", where it is now, and where it is going. The cloud is not the limit, its just the next layer.
