Also Section 9 recommends distributing root CA certs to users'
browsers, and does not mention the possibly of distributing the leaf
certs instead.  Less related, but I prefer to trust organizations leaf
certs individually than their root cert.

I don't have a problem with also recommending leaf certs, but you
should check with =JeffH.
