    Use SSL when requesting CAPCHAs from reCaptcha.
    
    This sounds bad. It is. What's worse: this only fixes half the
    problem. The recaptcha.client.captcha.submit() function in the reCaptcha
    API [0] is hardcoded to submit the server's (in this case, BridgeDB's)
    private API key, the client's IP address (BridgeDB sends a faked one),
    and the client's solution to the CAPTCHA, all over HTTP, in glorious
    plaintext. Hooray.
