Off-list, Rob correctly pointed out that there are two PKCS#10-related issues 
that are not describedt; both arise from requirements for BGPsec certificate 
extensions:

1) SIA extension is forbidden in BGPsec certificates.  

2) EKU extension is required in BGPsec certificates with a particular value.

Now we have a couple of options:

a) say nothing and rely on the CA doing the right thing

b) prohibit/require SIA/EKU (respectively) be present in the PKCS#10

c) For:

* SIA - allow SIA in the PKCS #10 and rely on the CA to discards it and issue a 
properly formed certificate.

* EKU - allow EKU but not require EKU in the PKCS #10; if present, the EKU must 
have the correct OID.

I’m partial to option c because it seems like the pragmatic approach.

Thoughts?
