Done, the name is chosen and the directory /etc/pki has been added
making its appearance in filesystem-2.3.2-1.

The recommendation is for each package to create a subdirectory
under /etc/pki with its own name. This is the most general solution, its
mimics recommendations in much of FHS, packages get their own area and
can do whatever they please without impacting anybody else, and its
makes it easier to enforce security via permissions, ownership, and
SELinux policy.
