I'm not keen to buy an expensive web certificate.  SelfService does not
warrant that level of security, but engineers can be instructed to import
the web certificate.  And HTTP requires slightly less resources.

My current problem is that by correctly setting the WebBaseURL in
RT_SiteConfig.pm to http or https I can get either one of the two working
but not both at the same time.  If http is specified then you cannot submit
replies in https and vice versa.
