It's still hard to give applets access to client-side data in a secure and
browser-independent way, but obviously this would be a great improvement.

I think it's because the crypto library they are using (Cryptix) doesn't do
SSL yet ;) I presume the applet and its startup parameters can be transferred
over SSL by the browser, but the applet can't use that SSL pipe itself.
