Hi,

When I go to http://bugs.python.org/ Firefox warns me that the form on
the left to login (user, password) sends data in clear text (HTTP).

Ok, I switch manually to HTTPS: add "s" in "http://"; of the URL.

I log in.

I go to an issue using HTTPS like https://bugs.python.org/issue31250

I modify an issue using the form and click on [Submit Changes] (or
just press Enter): I'm back to HTTP. Truncated URL:

http://bugs.python.org/issue31250?@ok_message=msg%20301099%20created%...

Hum, again I switch manually to HTTPS by modifying the URL:

https://bugs.python.org/issue31250?@ok_message=msg%20301099%20created%...

I click on the "clear this message" link: oops, I'm back to the HTTP world...

http://bugs.python.org/issue31250

So, would it be possible to enforce HTTPS on the bug tracker?

The best would be to always generate HTTPS urls and *maybe* redirect
HTTP to HTTPS.

Sorry, I don't know what are the best practices. For example, should
we use HTTPS only cookies?
