RFC 2818 (which is informational, NOT a proposed standard, but which reads like a proposed standard) in section 3.1 only allows * (not |) and that is all IE supports.

That's extremely interesting.

Given the existence of subjectAltName, I assume there's no value in IE ever supporting |?

I happened to see a | cert the other day (I thought it was on mecha.mozilla.org; if it was, it's not now); are people saying that they are, in fact, very rare?

Yes. You are unlikely to find them anywhere except in exterprise intranet situations where the enterprise has chosen to standardize on mozilla or
other NSS-based clients.
