Extension talk:HSTS

Possible variations
The initial version 0.1 is very basic, but the following features could be added if they are requested: ~ Seb35 14:55, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
 * let the user change the expiration time and/or date, so the users can first test with small durations and increase if it correctly works;
 * add a right for use of this extension, so possibly you can enable it independantly for anons, registrated users, or specific users (e.g. beta-testers).

User interface questioning
I chose to add the preference in the general section (User profile/Basic information), but I wonder if it would not be better in the Misc section (in a dedicated section Security perhaps).

Related to this, perhaps a better phrasing of the preference could be better (I don’t know) and more explicit: "always use HTTPS". IIRC Twitter had once some phrasing like that (no more such preference, I checked some days ago). On the other hand, unexperienced users could completely lose access to the site in case of misconfiguration (and so "expert words" could discourage them for their good), although perhaps I’m just too much anxious about this fact (which shouldn’t happen); or some explicit warning could be written.
