On a serious note, I'd like full https/ssl access, but if that's

This seems pretty reasonable, although I think it may be better to just ssl-encrypt the whole thing. (cookie stealing, etc.)

It's more an implementation issue than anything idealogical.

It's too bad most users freak out about HTTP-auth, as that does not transfer the password in the clear (unlike a normal form.)
