I don't think that is true. A big use case I think is to have
certificates within and outside the split DNS view for the corporate
versus public DNS. Eg *.nohats.ca and intranet.nohats.ca. Although
I agree that an organisation should probably get two certificates in
such a case.

Is the implementation of the current text really that much harder? I
think it would be better if the specification would not be limited,
unless it is a significant continious cost (eg extra load on servers).

The one-time programming cost seems less important[*]
