For what it's worth, we have no plans to support such newly-defined OIDs
within our Certificate Processing code (and have recently begun deprecating
support for commonName). It is correct that if CAs wish to use a longer
organizationName, creating a new Attribute OID with a defined value without
such an upper-bound is appropriate. However, as we do not afford special UI
treatment to organizationally-validated certificates, nor do we have plans
to do so, it would not be part of our development roadmap to afford any
special treatment to this UI.
