Given the questions surrounding Kavanaugh's work on the Starr counsel the last thing we need at confirmation are questions on the termination of an independent counsel.
Trump is not the target, though. Then again, a blue dress and cigar were not fundamental to the target of Whitewater though, were they? This is what happens with IC's. They start off with one thing and go end up God only know where.
They are defined as being the civilian / law enforcement equivalent of mission creep.

Trump is ABSOLUTELY the target of these investigations. Neither Manafort nor Cohen would have been approached if not for their association with Trump. From the very beginning this has been a political prosecution couched in a ridiculously thinly guised "criminal" investigation.
Trump is not a member of the political class in the US and the political class wants nothing to do with him. He's the ultimate party crasher and they want him gone no matter what lengths they feel they have to go.
