Alright, so here's some ideas:

-  An ACME-specific 'acme-methods' parameter taking a comma-separated
   list of methods (e.g. "acme-methods=dns-01,http-01").

-  A generic "method-uri" parameter which accepts a URI representing a
   method. For ACME this would be urn:ietf:acme:method:METHOD-NAME.
   Multiple methods would probably be specified via multiple CAA
   records; this would be slightly more obtuse for implementations
   to process than the above, but nothing unreasonable.

There's also the question of whether this should be in the same I-D or a
separate one. I'm fine with putting it in, but if anyone thinks it
should be a separate I-D, let me know.
