Research direction

Start by reviewing the referenced PR #3243 and commit 8a874c0cbc0436da60879c8b73d250373f402a7c, then trace the existing Let's Encrypt HTTP-challenge flow. Confirm that hostname DNS validation occurs before the certificate request and run the relevant existing checks or tests; completion should match the described behavior.
