Subject: cert renew requests incl. new key

Hello, I have been using OpenCA 0.8.1 for our grid CA software,
and am now looking at porting to 0.9.2
What is badly needed a semi-automatic renewal mechanism, where:
(a) the subject is told somehow, near expiry time, that
they may renew.
(b) the subject connects to the public server, and a new
cert request is created with the same DN, plus a new
private key is generated.
[note that (a) & (b) might involve challenge/response
(c) the old cert is revoked and a new cert is issued
I am having difficulty establishing exactly what support
is there in OpenCA that could be used for such a renewal
mechanism.
Could you suggest what you consider the best way to do this ?
[in the context of OpenCA]
