It seems your question does not relate to just SSL protocol.
To answer it one should know what application you are trying to convince
to grant access or privilege level based on the fact user do know
a private key corresponding to certificate presented.
I believe most free software (available in src to be exact) can be tweaked
to follow any reasonable convention adopted in an organisation.

This is unlikely a faq and I'd like to know "success stories" too about
certificate-based site-wide administration.
