The cumbersome part is adding the self-signed cert to the OS root store which eliminates the Browser warnings. This process differs on Mac/Win/Linux and so its kind of a mess.
I think it might be ok to release this as an "experimental" feature for upcoming 8.3.8 Bullseye. Maybe someone can figure out how to automate or document adding the self-signed cert to the OS specific root store.
Many people are landing on using an acme client and lets encrypt free certificates. Home Assistant relies on Lets Encrypt if you use their duckdns add on. It requires an account with Let's Encrypt. They issue you credentials that you can use with the acme client which automatically renews the certificate for you. This almost makes certificates a "fire and forget" solution. My browswer recognizes Let's Encrypt's root CA, so no worries there, either.
