Thanks for your feedback, Ryan and Alexey.  I basically did what you suggested.

I share your concerns about the public suffix list.  Does the WG have any 
thoughts?  FYI, Ryan wrote this:


  *   I'm a little sad any time there is a new dependency on the public suffix 
list, even informative :) I realize the point is to say it's out of scope, and 
alternative language, such as "wildcard that spans multiple domain 
administration boundaries" is as clear as mud and reads like a mouthful of 
marbles. My main concern/consideration is that the whole "wildcards and PSL" is 
messy (all the more reason to keep it out of scope!), although I worry folks 
will read this and think "Oh, this is a hint to use the PSL, nudge and wink"

Alexey convinced me ALPN is out of scope, it’s more about “how to use TLS in 
applications” :) not this specific document.

I still would like comments on the last paragraph of the section:


  *   To accommodate the workaround that was needed before the development of 
the SNI extension, this specification allows multiple DNS-IDs, SRV-IDs, or 
URI-IDs in a certificate.

Should that go away now?  If so, that will have ripple effects.  Perhaps just 
add that this MAY be the equivalent of multiple names, could enable 
cross-protocol attacks, and should be avoided unless necessary?
