This privacy is implied for domain users inasfar as the domain CA does not mention users.
When creating the DNS owner name, effects of DNS zone walking and possible harvesting of identities in the DNS zone will have to be considered.
The DNS owner name may not have to have a direct relation to the name of the subject or the subjectAltName of the certificate.
