But if we must have ritual compliance with 5280, then my preferred solution
is to "poison" the Issuer Name in the Precertificate.

For example...
Certificate Issuer Name: C=GB, O=My CA Ltd., CN=My CA
Precertificate Issuer Name: 1.2.3.4=CT, C=GB, O=My CA Ltd., CN=My CA

Sign both the Precertificate and the Certificate with the same CA private
key.  Use the same serial number for both.

It wouldn't matter whether or not there exists a CA Certificate with the
Subject Name "1.2.3.4=CT, C=GB, O=My CA Ltd., CN=My CA".

Ah. I like that idea. Rather less than I like the idea of fixing the
need for ritual compliance, though.
