Well, if the container is not visible on port 80, you presumably want
a path-preserving HTTP -> HTTPS redirect for all URLs on the FQDN. Such
redirect would also redirect ACME HTTP requests.

Or if one wants just to redirect ACME HTTP requests, one can redirect
just the paths under .well-known/acme-challenge/. No need to be
discriminate: the target server will sort it out anyway.
