That's our preferred solution.
Note that mod_ssl still insists that a server certificate exists which is
used to generate temp RSA keys, so non-SSL users will need to install a
dummy certificate even when they're serving only HTTP requests. Not a big
deal, but something we need to consider.
The other issues we're considering are:
- performance impact when not serving HTTPS (if any, we haven't
yet measured it)
- impact on optional or user-written modules (which modules need
mod_ssl's EAPI and which don't)

operation
Why not option a) and just comment out the SSL directives in httpd.conf?
