Note that turning SSL support off means all your user's usename and passwords 
will be sent IN THE CLEAR and OVER WIFI. 

Since most people just reuse the same usernames and passwords over and over, 
saying that this is bad except for development is somewhat of an 
understatement!  So, the default is unlikely to change.

However, if you were confused by the default, by all means clarify the 
documentation on the wiki so others can benefit.  It can be edited by anyone.
