If the authorization server is requested over HTTP (as in the case of the
example service http://term.ie), both the request parameters and the headers
are transmitted in plaintext. We should either a) prevent OAuth from being used
with HTTP servers or at least b) warn visibly when the secret will be
transmitted in plaintext.
