I understand that you want it to “just work” (you said that a couple of times :), but other folks have raised security concerns – do you understand or agree with them?

One way forward is to say a client MAY specific a port, where the default is 443. An ACME server MAY reject requests for ports other than 443 if it is in violation of the operating policy.

Does that work?
