That would be the way to go - it would be nice if you could just toss a
blob of data known to be an ASN-encoded certificate/cert-chain and the
crypto library would break it apart into its constituent pieces for you.

Back when I was struggling with the Netscape SSL3 reference implementation
(which was a nightmare, but let's save that for another forum) I wrote some
code that could do this, and would even tell the difference between an
NS-chain and a PKCS7-chain.  They are just different enough to be
inconvenient.  When I get a chance to learn the ASN library in OpenSSL, I'd
like to add this feature unless somebody comes up with a good reason not
to.
