On 08/03/2013 12:28 AM, From kirk_hall at trendmicro.com: 

We also agree.  We were part of all BR discussions, and the effect of rekeying was never discussed.


There is no such a thing, it simply doesn't exist! There is only a certificate that is either valid, expired or revoked and every time a certificate is issued it's a NEW certificate. It has a new serial number and signature hash...and it may have similar properties as another certificate but it will never be the same certificate. Every time a CA issues a certificate it's a NEW certificate no matter what.

And in this respect it must always comply to the relevant requirements and standards. The word "rekeying" is something CAs invented but it doesn't really exist - there is no certificate like the other and if there was we'd have far bigger problems now.
