Ideally, such a tool should produce a WebID-Profile document by taking
URL of said document as one of its invocation arguments. Basically, it
should execute the following sequence:

1. Lookup object of foaf:primaryTopic | schema:mainEntity relations --
i.e., determine WebID

2. Use WebID as default value for SAN in pending X.509 cert

3. Generate X.509 cert of CSR

4. Emit a message containing new cert:key relation (which has public key
from new X.509 or CSR as object)  that needs to be added WebID-Profile doc.

We have used this approach across all our WebID generators for many
years and it does simplify this particular endeavor.
