yes. It's inside this script that you can implement all kind of logic 
that you need. There is no out of the box knob fr revoking just one 
specific key.

The idea behind the "flexibility" is that you are allowed to store 
(almost) anything inside the client-key metadata. This metadata is then 
available to the verify script which can do anything about it.

For example the metadata may contain some unique ID of the fingerprint 
of the client cert..or anything you may come up with (i.e. an expiry date).

This is why you couldn't find any "how" on the Internet. You need to 
build the logic by yourself.

I hope this helps!

Cheers,
