Earlier in RFC 4985, it says:
The SRVName, if present, MUST contain a service name and a domain
name in the following form:
_Service.Name
The content of the components of this name form MUST be consistent
with the corresponding definition of these components in an SRV RR
according to RFC 2782
I think this was actually clear enough. The subsequent statement
that
Name is "The DNS domain name of the domain where the specified
service
is located." (which could mean any of a number of things) confused
the
issue, and probably should not have been in the document.
Agreed, but since it will be an errata, the text must be corrected.
Do you agree with my proposal?
"The DNS domain name of a domain for which the certified subject
is authorized to provide the identified service."
Authorized by whom? I *think* that here the DNS domain name is one
that
the certified subject has itself authorized (perhaps even
"established"
is better) to provide the desired service. Therefore I suggest an
alternative wording:
"A DNS domain name which the certified subject has
authorized to provide the identified service."

I don't think that's right either, since it's the *issuer* of the cert
that's making the assertion. Maybe something like the following:
"
A DNS domain name for which the issuer authorizes the subject to
provide the indicated service.
"
