[Zope] Zope-2.7 both http and https in parallel? (l-zope: addressed to exclusive sender for this address)

exactly. Thats why I wrote a patch. It adds a <https-server> stanza
identical to <http-server> but adding the HTTPS ON header
automatically.

I think, it would be better to allow multiple <http-server> stanzas
with embedded <cgi-environment> like:

<http-server>
  address 443
  <cgi-environment>
    HTTPS ON
  </cgi-environment>
</http-sever>

(THIS DOES NOT WORK NOW AS OF 2004-05-06 ITS A SUGGESTION !!!) but my
solution was much simpler to implement. The patch is not large, so I
think, it's ok to post it here, as others might well be interested as
well. This is against Zope-2.7.0.
