STS is WebPKI.  If you want STS, you need a certificate from one
of the usual CAs.  With a self-signed certificate (some day just
a bare public key and no certificate at all) you can only use DANE.

Top 10 issuers of certs for DANE MX hosts:

     172 ; Issuer = CN=StartCom Class 1 Primary Intermediate Server 
CA,OU=Secure Digital Certificate Signing,O=StartCom Ltd.,C=IL
     166 ; Issuer = CN=COMODO RSA Domain Validation Secure Server CA,O=COMODO 
CA Limited,L=Salford,ST=Greater Manchester,C=GB
     165 ; Issuer = CN=Let's Encrypt Authority X1,O=Let's Encrypt,C=US
      91 ; Issuer = CN=StartCom Class 2 Primary Intermediate Server 
CA,OU=Secure Digital Certificate Signing,O=StartCom Ltd.,C=IL
      90 ; Issuer = CN=Gandi Standard SSL CA 2,O=Gandi,L=Paris,ST=Paris,C=FR
      81 ; Issuer = CN=StartCom Class 1 DV Server CA,OU=StartCom Certification 
Authority,O=StartCom Ltd.,C=IL
      63 ; Issuer = CN=Let's Encrypt Authority X3,O=Let's Encrypt,C=US
      62 ; Issuer = CN=RapidSSL SHA256 CA - G3,O=GeoTrust Inc.,C=US
      38 ; Issuer = CN=WoSign CA Free SSL Certificate G2,O=WoSign CA 
Limited,C=CN
      33 ; Issuer = CN=CAcert Class 3 Root,OU=http://www.CAcert.org,O=CAcert 
Inc.

( Note some of the MX hosts support many hundreds of domains, the above counts
  the issuer just once for each issued certificate, not once per domain served. 
)
