Good question. Previously, we expected that the CA had to store the CSR
because it would need the public key in order to issue. With
finalizeURL, we can get rid of that requirement. CAs are required to
record CSRs in their audit logs, but there is no formal requirement to
keep them in an online database. So my preference would be to remove the
"csr" field from order objects, since it doesn't serve any purpose.

Other thoughts?
