What if someone hacked your server and stole, then deleted the private key? (Backing up private keys is bad practice.)

What if the CA notices they issued a fraudulent certificate?

Hmm, I considered this possibility in a comment, incidentally two hours before yours, below. Let the CA have an ability to revoke certs, I'm not suggesting against that. I'm suggesting a method in addition to it.
