I mean, that's what its all about. Hmmmm... You've lost me again <frown>. If you mean cert distributors, you can buy certs for about $10 from GoDaddy, and yes, browsers recognize them. If you mean the browser should recognize the cert as a cert and not care about the name it's issued for, that can't work because the purpose of a cert is to guarantee you're talking to whom you think you're talking to. So the domain name has to be in there.
