That's correct - 'revokation' in this case would likely involve rolling the DNS name to something different. Since these racks tend to have precise targeting (ie. not dns gslb) and non-user facing names, there's more flexibility.

The delegated creds draft that regecks mentioned is also relevant. That will make issuing lighter weight, so this sort of 'burn the cert and roll the DNS name' procedure becomes significantly cheaper operationally.
