 Severity:  major        |    Keywords:  SSL Security MU
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 Admin-SSL supports different prefices for secure and insecure access.

 For instance, all logged-in / wp-admin access for
 <http://www.extrapepperoni.com/> is under <https://secure.reppep.com/ep/>,
 and all admin access for <http://www.mscrochety.com/> is under
 <https://secure.reppep.com/mscrochety/>.

 First, WordPress' built-in SSL features should support this configuration.
 It's not clear, but appears that the HTTP & HTTPS URLs must be the same,
 except the scheme, which prevents clean SSL for sites without an IP for
 each blog.

 Second, WordPress MU should support this as well. Admin-SSL's WordPress MU
 support lacks the "Shared SSL" capability available for non-MU WordPress.
