Create paranoia feature

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It would be nice to have an option to disable all unencrypted requests and 
therefore enforce encryption on everything.

This is only really useful in situations where you can live without sites that 
don't support encryption and if you would really like to avoid using any 
unencrypted sites at all.

It's only really possible once issue 25 is implemented.

I suggest calling this the paranoia feature, in lack of a better description so 
far. Suggestions for names and feedback on the idea is very welcome.

This would be useful, if even only as an 'advanced' option.  

While the default behaviour is to allow HTTP-only sites, if I could change the 
option to ask me to continue, go back, or block the page [permentantly, or only 
in 'paranoia' mode]

That said, my primary concern is not being caught off guard when surfing 
switches from HTTPS to HTTP.  If it can warn me before (on known sites) or 
after (on unknown sites), this would be a great improvement.
