Comment (by Clorith):

 @peterwilsoncc I agree that we need some docs here on how to verify your
 site works on https in cases where it can't be automatically detected. I
 do agree with @TimothyBlynJacobs as well though, that we want to be
 careful to not put the user in a situation where they may lock them selves
 out by accident.

 Not running the check if `is_ssl` is also a great idea, as @Ipstenu notes;
 browsers will handle the scenario if the SSL is incorrect in that case, so
 WordPress shouldn't worry about it.

 I also think this is a scenario where we'd be OK to introduce some new
 strings if we need to make clarifications anywhere.
