Thanks for this comment. Added a note for you on Wart's bug 1845271.

Do you think this is a significant limitation?

In theory, it should not be too hard to make the engine's PKI code
more flexible, allowing configuring it to use whatever algorithms
both openssl/m2crypto and Java support, but in reality this was never
requested. Only relevant change I recall was the request to change
from hash algo SHA1 to SHA256, several years ago (which we did, then,
unconditionally, still hardcoding sha256 in several places).

Thanks and best regards,
