Indeed certtool is mostly certificate oriented. As I check now, I don't see 
functions to handle public keys, unless they are in certificate containers 
(pgp or x509). How is the public key this site program asks used? Will a 
certificate request, or a certificate (pgp or x509) be more appropriate?
