This is certificate key, not account key. The only place where ACME
currently uses JWS for certificate key is revoke-by-private-key.

... Which has an issue that if certificate key is something that is
not supported by JWS, then it can not be revoked by private key.

And using JWS here would similarly have an issue that it does not
support signature keys that are not supported by JWS (but are supported
by some other protocol the keys are for).
