Sorry for the late reply, I could test your solution only today…

I don't think that the user name mapping feature works in the way you are hoping it does. 
 According to https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/auth-username-maps.html what the 
map does is to specify allowed combinations of the validated external user name 
("Albrecht Dreß" in your example) and the database role the user asked to 
connect as.  So given

> certaccess /^.*$   testuser

it should be possible to do

psql -h dbserver -U testuser testdb

with a certificate that has CN="Albrecht Dreß" (or anything else).

Yes, this works perfectly – I really misunderstood the docs here!

Thanks a lot for your help,
Albrecht.
