In my experience there are two commonly used patterns
a) using the organisational hierarchy 
b) using the domain name hierarchy
You'll find them in standard LDAP schemas.

I'm suggesting the change, because while trying this myself, I was unsure at 
this point, about what to enter. I consider this an indication that more help
for the user is useful. And giving an example would be similiar to how it is 
done in OpenPGP. Maybe the message can be made even more instructive like

(_("Enter the X.509 subject name (the DN as required from your CA)\n"
		"(for example \"cn=Heinrich Heine,o=example,c=org\"):"));
