By the way, if you're offering to help with this, there are a couple of things I could use some help with. I scratched my head a bit about how to turn the "othername" possibility of a subjectAltName into a Python data structure, using the OpenSSL C code, and finally gave up. If you could provide a C function that does that, I'd be very grateful.
And there's a similar issue with the "permanent identifier" defined in RFC 4043. I don't see how to iterate over an ASN1 sequence using the OpenSSL C code -- if you can figure out how to do that and provide a C function to translate that field in a certificate into a Python data structure, it would also be a great help.
