Nginx failing to ask for PEM SSL key password

[lakarjail]

Thank you for your answer.
Could you please describe technically the "protected vault" for Debian you
have in mind as a solution?

If I understand you well, there is no simple solution in debian as we can
have with Apache2 and its mod_ssl function 'SSLPassPhraseDialog'? That is
quite surprising from Nginx/Debian support.
