You would need to set this HTTP proxy outside of app engine. For example, Squid on amazon EC2. The proxy would be set as reverse proxy, and should point to your appspot secure domain (to ensure that you have HTTPS connection all the way to your app). I imagine you would also need to tell app engine to make your app accessible on both www.mydomain.com and secure.mydomain.com (via the proxy). You should also harden the configuration of the proxy to ensure that it allows only the URLs that must be on HTTPS, such as the login form submission, but not other URLs.
Your session cookies need to be configured to move between the domains, and over HTTP and HTTPS. This may not be that simple to configure. Having said all that, I did not actually try it, I am not sure that it would work. When I write this is starts looking to me like a big can of worms.
