In the case of ECDSA, it'll be very rare for the parameters to be
omitted since they can be compactly represented by a named curve. In
fact, I've not seen code in SSL libraries that'll go hunting for EC
parameters in a CA key - I strongly suspect that support for this is
minimal at best.

Therefore I'm happy to simply exclude the possibility in the spec and
save the complexity.
