One question: 

Do we care if someone steals a password via a sniffer and is now able to
submit bogus entries?

I don't see this info important enough to warrent the SSL overhead.  
We're not talking about credit card #'s here.  If you're worried *that*
much about the quality of the information provided here that someone might
do this, then you're more paranoid that even I am! :-)
