I'm not going to comment on the conversion of ACME into a REST-based design, I 
just find
it amusing/interesting/odd that I in my [sort of] "ACME for mobile devices", 
SKS/KeyGen2,
came up with essentially the diametrically opposed solution like:

- HTTP POST to the same URL using HTTP 200 as the sole response code
- Uniquely identifiable JSON message classes
- Clear-text JSON signatures
- Key attestations rather than PKCS #10/PoP

Message classes are registered and then automatically instantiated in one place 
and
after that dispatched to the appropriate handler which also provides the return 
object.

This is like an extremely scaled-down version of the thing that made people 
turn to REST,
the bloated and ugly beast known as WS-*.
