Pretty much by definition the accounts holding those bits are the one we
/least/ want to have their password snooped, and the ones most likely to
be targeted by malicious eavesdroppers.  If we could only support some
accounts to use HTTPS, those are the ones we would need to force.

Yes, it does mean that there could not be checkusers in mainland China,
for instance as long as they are unable to log in through HTTPS.  That
would be a /good/ thing.
