Well, right now it's like this (maybe they'll change it?): "You can add your certificate from our panel’s Manage Domain area." And that panel won't let you "add certificate" until you get yourself the unique IP address for about $50/year; nevermind the strange feeling of setting up a domain through the panel which you never intend on hosting there.

I think what he means by "You can use them with us or any other web host..." is that, should you choose to move to a different web hosting company, Dreamhost will make it easy for you to take the certificate with you.
