Mads,

I can speak to the first points about 3.2.2.4.10:

Yes, "TLS Using a Random Number" is intended to permit the TLS-SNI method
from the ACME specification. You're right that it's missing the clause "on
the Authorization Domain Name" as appears in the other methods, it should
be added.

I updated the graphical diff from earlier in this thread:

Cheers,
J.C.
