Jeff,

I would really like port numbers being allowed as part of the ADDR_LIST
specification. I recently started playing with special CA servers (like CA
gateways) on different ports to save name space and avoid side effects on
the "normal" CA clients. I am definitely missing the possibility to
explicitly add one of those "special port" CA servers to the "normal port"
ADDR_LIST of a CA client.
