Sorry, I forgot to say that a Web site would choose the new secure ACE 
prefix when they use https. In fact, they would make that choice for 
similar reasons, i.e. to allow the user agent to distinguish this site 
from a less secure one, similar to Mozilla's current choice of using the 
padlock icon and a different color near the URI at the top for https.
