Comment(by datallah):
At the time trac was set up, there was concern about the load of using SSL
everywhere, so we redirected to SSL for login and account maintenance, but
everything else is done over plain HTTP.
We probably can get away with using SSL everywhere now. I'll look into
doing that when we move to nicobar.
It isn't really a problem though - the impact of someone stealing your
cookies and impersonating you is extremely low for something like this;
all of the data is public, so there is no concern of "leaking".
