I think that covers all the considerations that would go into a decision
of whether to include only a SHA1-based cert, or whether to include a
newer SHA256 cert.  I will stop short of making a recommendation for
Izenpe in this case.

Kathleen, I think the best approach is to present Izenpe with Nelson's analysis (for which, thanks!) and let them decide. Personally I think the potential downside from including the SHA-256 root is pretty small.
