I'm not sure I see an abiding objection here: hg.illumos.org is published via ssh, and, among other virtues, it just works. There are also https mirrors and git/https for people who need to deal with firewall issues or want to fetch with a different SCM. As long as there's a mirror that provides something like https support, do you really care whether the primary repo is https vs. ssh?
