Yes. Each certificate (or more precisely, each lineage of certificates,
where a lineage is a series of certificates that replace each other with
new validity dates and possibly new domains added) gets a renewal
configuration file in /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/ ; the "certbot renew"
command walks through those and tries to renew any that are within 30
days of expiry.  The Debian packages run that task twice a day out of
the box.

I think we've concluded that we'll add a note-upon-installation telling
the sys admin that that's going to start happening, and point to where
it can be turned off or tweaked.
