I agree that 2247 is not very good for DN (but I missed that in my own
review; thank you for noticing it!).
I think that the best reference might differ if we want the conventional
string encoding of the DN vs the actual ASN.1 structure, but I think I
would have to consult with some other experts to be certain of the right
reference, in either case.
