Ben,

Can you clarify something? The SCT delivery options described in the RFC are 
options for the web site owner, not for the CA. CAs will need to support all 
three options. We will have customers who won’t do stapling and can’t handle 
TLS extensions, so they just want the SCTs embedded in the cert. But not all 
customers will prefer that option. I believe other customers will want the 
SCT-in-the-OCSP-response or TLS extension option, because in those options you 
don’t have to transmit the SCTs in every SSL handshake. I suspect some of our 
large customers who are obsessed with performance will demand one of these 
options.
 
So CAs will need to support all three options, unless you’re so small a CA that 
your few EV customers agree on one option. Is that your expectation?
