I'd like to remember what the main point of having SSL inside the browser were. I'm getting old. ;)
Looking briefly, I couldn't find relevant discussion. Possibly it was off list. My recollection is that, at the time, it had to do with seeing how SSL was becoming more and more central to browsing with things like 'HTTPS Everywhere' and 'HTTP Strict Transport Security' coming along and the issue of privacy gaining increasing public awareness. As for this effort now, I started just by wondering what it would look like if I integrated Benjamin's code and took out the windows stuff. It was working pretty well very quickly. And now I like how much more respectful of servers and resources Dillo can be when HTTPS is integrated with the http_max_conns queuing and http_persistent_conns. I think Johannes mentioned something about Dillo and Tor not working together so well with HTTPS in a dpi, but I don't know the details there.
