Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
My problem is that I have a webserver (from my router) that only accepts certificates/privates keys that are generated via RSA. It also contains a self-generated certificate. I was hoping to fully ignore the webservers certificate because I have the proxy manager, but whatever I try to change at the config, the proxy manager forwards the certificate from my router.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would resolve the issue if you could discard the certificate of the underlying host. Also it would be great to have the option to go back to RSA. I tried to change the letsencrypt.ini file without success.
Describe alternatives you've considered
An alternative would be to create the certificate manually and upload it but that isn't practical because they expire every 90 days.

Research direction
Start by tracing the certificate-generation configuration around letsencrypt.ini and the proxy manager's handling of certificates from an underlying host. Determine where RSA selection and discarding the upstream certificate would be configured; done means both requested options have an explicit, usable configuration path for this deployment scenario.
