Stop it. The level of support is just fine and probably even better than
any commercial party will offer. There is just no new development in
hardware, but even if there was it would still not include HTTPS support
for the simple reason that it is impossible for any manufacturer to know
what domain you run on your internal network, if any. What you are
failing to identify here is that the primary objective of HTTPS is not
so much about encryption but about peer identification. A certificate
thus always contains a name and if the name does not match then your
browser will reject the site completely rather than simply cause you
annoyance for needing to remove a `s` in the address field. Tip: create
a bookmark - then you will never have to correct the URI again.
