As a reasonably skilled user, while attempting to sign a CSR, I am to decode an error message using non-obvious terms, and the message text is missing a space or other delimiter
[description of the issue] The error #3009 looks to be a concatenation from two sources. The text is: invalid 'csr': subject alt name type RFC822Name is forbidden for non-user principals
invalid 'csr': subject alt name type RFC822Name is forbidden for non-user principals
Clear and relatively unambiguous feedback is helpful for all levels of users. Acronyms and jargon tend to isolate experienced users.
Receive the message: 'invalid 'csr': subject alt name type RFC822Name is forbidden for non-user principals' The message appears to be a concatenation of: invalid 'csr': subject alt name type RFC822 and: Name is forbidden for non-user principals
invalid 'csr': subject alt name type RFC822
Name is forbidden for non-user principals
It further seems 'name' above refers to 'subject alternate name' (SAN).

I was totally wrong on this.
