I have no idea why this would be intentional. I don't mind the certificates and keys being put in the file store, but those of us (in my company) who know how to manage things via CLI and depend on it for the speed it provides aren't very happy about it, not to mention that it has caused a few problems when restoring configurations. I've got over 60 pairs of F5s that I'm responsible for and doing every single CSR request or renewal import through the GUI just won't work. That's why I've written tools to automate the process of CSR generation and cert/key installation via CLI.
