In a world where there are online CAs issuing client certificates it is important to not allow the endtime of a ticket acquired with PKINIT to extend past the notAfter of the client's certificate. Otherwise there is the risk that a user can cycle a forever credential by using Kerberos to acquire a client certificate and then the client certificate to acquire a TGT, repeatedly getting a 10 hour (or whatever is configured) extension, and thus avoiding the need to periodically engage in initial [pre-]authentication. This should apply to all pre-authentication methods where the method involves expiring credentials, and indeed, it already applies to PA-TGS for example. Not applying the client certificate's notAfter to the issued ticket's endtime is only a serious bug in environments that also operate online CAs that issue client certificates good for PKINIT to clients authenticated with Kerberos. In the context of as-originally-intended deployment, this is not a serious bug.
