Peter, I'm confused why only the section 3.2.2.4.7 specifically addresses this concern, and how. If only it does, would it implies that CA must use this method of section 3.2.2.4.7 to validate a Base Domain Name, which happened to be an Authorization Domain Name requested by the applicant ? However, according to section 3.2.2.4, each FQDN listed in the certificate is required to be validated using AT LEAST one of the methods only.
