There are several reasons:

1. Every vendor has it's own idea how to create a request (Netscape and IE)
2. Some softwareproducts simply output a file (server like Apache, ldap ...)
3. Some softwareproducts cannot create requests (basic request - konqueror)
4. Sometimes all cryptooperation should be done by the Operators (token 
request - the smartcard will be initialized by the RA Operator)
