> put my own domain-specific CA Cert in DNS directly.

Remember that this allows any of your government or people controlling the zone to transparently put the cert there too. (For potential problems see [0]).

With the CA system (that I personally also don't like) at least the certs are logged in Certificate Transparency logs so you see any potential attacks.
