One thing I'll say that we've learned from supporting the official letsencrypt client is that different types of "simple" work for different people. On Ubuntu 14.04, which is our most popular platform, The breakdown of authenticator plugins used when successfully obtaining certs is like this:
34% use the Apache plugin (also supports cert installation) 32% use the "standalone" plugin 23% use the "webroot" plugin 6% use "manual" plugin 5% use the third party Plesk plugin (also supports cert installation) Similarly in support forums, when people have trouble but can be helped across the line, it's a pretty diverse set of methods that wind up working for them.
