HTTPS Everywhere lists Wrong Planet as being "broken MCB, partial". I'll be honest, I'm really not sure what this means.

Me neither, but it does look like "HTTPS Everywhere" might be helpful for anyone concerned:
https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere/at ... t.net.html

Somewhere else I have seen mention of the idea of a developer making a secure (https://) page for login while letting the remainder of the site run without encryption, but I think it would be easier to just add an SSL certificate for the entire site. Also, it is at least possible that WrongPlanet actually might have a self-signed certificate making encryption possible. I had that at my own sites for a while until my certificate expired.

Update: I just logged out and then used https://wrongplanet.net/forums/ to log back in again, so it does appear encryption actually is available here.
