I'm talking about cn=kra,<IPA suffix>. It should be created only when 
KRA is installed, although I think this can be done later after the 
release, moving vaults to cn=kra should be good enough for now. It's 
going to be used for everything KRA-specific.

This is about sticking to a convention, which everyone should do, and 
everyone except KRA already does.

I'm sorry I didn't realize this earlier, but the change must be done now.

We can't revisit it later because after release we are stuck with 
whatever is there forever.

See attachment for a patch which implements the change.
