Not to mention encryption can seriously degrade function of some links

I'd only go through this pallaver if they cannot make a HTTP
connection. Are the logged attempts failing HTTPS and aborting, or
failing HTTPS then succeeding with HTTP?
I don't agree with this HTTPS everywhere thing. Some things don't need
to be encrypted, and some things can't be. I wouldn't want my browser
to prevent me from being able to browse some service.
