The only solution to this that is apparent to me is for the web to
evolve to the point where browsers no longer accept DNS names in
non-standard locations in the cert, such as in the Subject Common Name.

Which in itself might create quite some problems. I guess we don't need any more problems right now when considering the current UI implementation and complaints coming in... Just imagine CN fields wouldn't be checked anymore by NSS:

"OMG, my openssl cert doesn't work anymore. Firefox is broken!"  :-)
