Right.  If the email address can be represented in a form that can be carried in rfc822Name, then it should be carried there.  Otherwise, it should be carried in SmtpUTF9Name.

In Section 2, you include a reference for ABNF.  If you are going to do that, then references for ASN.1 probably go there too.  Something like:

   Certificate are generated using ASN.1 [X680] and the Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER) [X690].

   [X680]     ITU-T, "Information technology -- Abstract Syntax Notation
              One (ASN.1): Specification of basic notation", ITU-T
              Recommendation X.680, 2015.

   [X690]     ITU-T, "Information technology -- ASN.1 encoding rules:
              Specification of Basic Encoding Rules (BER), Canonical
              Encoding Rules (CER) and Distinguished Encoding Rules
              (DER)", ITU-T Recommendation X.690, 2015.
