Yes, we already have gzip enabled.

But the point isn't that the firewall blocks it - that's easy to solve
- it's that we can't intercept the error and let the user know what to
do.
The simple way is we can tell them to login via https (which the
firewall can't block). But we can't do that if we don't know there's a
problem.
