I think RFC4030 should have updated RFC3046 to add this as a security consideration, but it did not.   However, e.g. RFC4243, RFC5010 and RFC5107 do add a similar requirement to their security considerations section, so it's probably fair to say that this has been informally adopted as appropriate practice for security considerations sections.
