Starting with baking ACMEv2 in the major webservers (apache, IIS, etc).

If Microsoft baked in Auto-cert-install in to IIS that allowed you to cherry pick a provider, and/or just select their own free CA, that'd really solve the problem for Windows based web servers. In my experience CertBot/ACME type renewal doesn't work reliably for Windows/IIS.
