Ben,
The biggest issue you face is that you can only issue certificates based
on version 1 templates in your configuration. An enterprise CA running
on standard edition cannot issue certificates based on version 2
templates.

Why I am harping on this is that if the CA was running on enterprise
edition, you could then create a custom v2 certificate template that
provides the subject in the request, and allows private key export.
