+Custom attributes can be used by the CA when deciding whether to sign the
+certificate, but are then discarded. Attribute OIDs can be any OID value except
+the standard CSR attributes (i.e. attributes described in RFC 2985 section 5.4).

+(see the `autosign` setting), often by using the `1.2.840.113549.1.9.7`
+("challenge password") OID.
+
+Extension requests will be permanently embedded in the final certificate.
+Extension OIDs must be in the "ppRegCertExt" (`1.3.6.1.4.1.34380.1.1`) or
+"ppPrivCertExt" (`1.3.6.1.4.1.34380.1.2`) OID arcs. The ppRegCertExt arc is

+`pp_instance_id` (`.2`), `pp_image_name` (`.3`), and `pp_preshared_key` (`.4`)
+--- in the YAML file, these can be referred to by their short descriptive names
+instead of their full OID. The ppPrivCertExt arc is unregulated, and can be used
