See certbot/certbot#8322.

I'm creating an issue here for more visibility. If people see this who know more about python-jose, I'd be interested to hear any concerns or support for this idea.

This is another alternative https://github.com/latchset/jwcrypto

I have an on-going effort to support OKP (Bernstein curves: Ed25519, Ed448, X25519, X448), which is included in jwcrypto, but not in python-jose.

Ooo thanks atombrella.

More research would need to be done, but jwcrypto looks more promising to me. It's based on cryptography by default (with no other supported backend) and has maintainers from Red Hat and the Python core team.

PyJWT is also a contender.
