The I-9 form actually does list those certificates. It says under List C: "Employment authorization document issued by the Department of Homeland Security". Your naturalization certificate or certificate of citizenship is an "Employment authorization document" but admittedly USCIS buries this well. Refer to Form I-9 Acceptable Documents

Some employment authorization documents issued by DHS include but are not limited to Form I-94 Arrival/Departure Record issued to asylees or work-authorized nonimmigrants (for example, H-1B nonimmigrants) because of their immigration status, Form I-571, Refugee Travel Document (PDF), an unexpired Form I-327, Reentry Permit , Form N-560, Certificate of U.S. Citizenship or Form N-561, Replacement Certificate of Citizenship (PDF, 40.3 KB), or Form N-550, Certificate of Naturalization or Form N-570, Replacement Certificate of Naturalization (PDF, 176.3 KB).
