By my reading, the applicable case is "a value specified by CA to the
Applicant that exhibits at least 112 bits of entropy". I don't see
any discussion wheither it is per-request or per-token. And the other
case would imply that it doesn't even have to be unknown to the
applicant (that case explicitly says so).

There also seems to be second method, but it would require pre-
generating the server private key.
