I will add a PE to my backlog.

In some cases, sure, but I don't think we need to require it. As a matter of
interop, there aren't many cases where mandating a second level status is
worth bothering with.

Based on the feedback I'm getting, it pretty much makes no difference. The
problem is that if people get non-DER certs, they're stuck with them. That's
kind of the problem here.
