I know some people felt weird about what I said here, so I did a
little digging around and it turns out that $_SERVER['HTTPS'] cannot
be spoofed.  Good to know, because I got an IM from nate saying
"because if that's possible, I need to change some stuff up".

I think using Robby's suggestion of requireSecure() and the
blackHoleCallback is the best way to go.
