Certificates are barely checked in SMTP at all (opportunistic and at that), but to the extent that they are, I am not aware of anyone who's got meaningful certificates that only have a matching CN and no matching SAN. It is fine to deprecate the requirement to support CNs in the absence of a DNS-ID SAN also for SMTP (not just Web).
