I currently don't think so. The direct method should go away anyway.
It is just a relic from the time we started with this thing. Sure
there is an additional burden to have a certificate for the subdomain
but given the slow acceptance of the Web Key Directory I would not
consider the direct method a real help for anyone. Those who run their
own webserver and might use the direct method, will also be able to
setup a subdomain.
Salam-Shalom,
