There's some good questions there, actually. OEM SSL, does that mean
another CA would be doing the validation and issuing using their own
infrastructure and team, which you would be reselling via a
constrained intermediate? I don't think it'd be a good idea at present
to be gaining effectively a new CA certificate that is cross-signed,
only to be using the existing infrastructure that is currently meant
to be undergoing remediation. That'd probably be put under the same
restrictions too if that's the case.
