ZLC center controller reported a crj-900 encountered wake turbulence at FL350 when it passed beneath...

Narrative:

A crj-900 had just checked on our frequency at FL350 and reported smooth rides. We (I was training a developmental on the right position) answered mostly smooth ahead. A super airbus A380 [flew] over the top of the crj-900 at FL370. Since the aircraft were 2000 feet apart we did not issue merging target procedures or issue wake turbulence advisories. One minute after the crj-900 passed beneath the A380 the pilot said; 'hey center; it would have been nice if you would have called traffic on that A380 that just passed over us.' I then informed the pilot our rules apply to 1000 feet vertical separation and merging target/wake turbulence procedures. I asked if he received any wake turbulence from the A380 and he responded affirmatively.I have sent a previous report on the A380 wake turbulence in the enroute environment problem. The wake turbulence advisories for [the] A380 need to be expanded. I believe the A380 is a unique aircraft that will need even more scrutiny and special procedures. I believe the FAA needs to be more proactive issuing advisories about wake turbulence and super aircraft. This has been a problem that many in the aviation community; pilots and controllers; have been very aware [of].
