The "length" of the discussion is because we have NO consensus in the Media TF if HTTPS: should be mandatory.    I am really surprised that you would draw any conclusion simply for the "length" of the discussion.  The best that can said about Bug 26332 is that there are passionate proponents of BOTH sides of the argument.

2) I'm pretty sure that if we did cookies today we'd restrict them.
