It's missing some functionality ... how does it know which event has to be secured? It should secure only specific events, and force unsecured requests for the rest. something like
if not isSsl and requireSll then cflocate to https
if isSsl and not requireSll then cflocate to http

Rob you're right. We could implement that. Just make a list of allowed events without SSL as a property in interceptor xml definition and then check with event.getCurrentEvent() if we need SSL.
I will take a look and keep you informed.
