ACTION-349: verify that normative material from WhatIsASecurePage was fully incorporated in wsc-xit

Hello all,

http://www.w3.org/2006/WSC/wiki/WhatIsASecurePage

AFAICT, the following recommendations are not yet in wsc-xit, or possibly  
not sufficiently covered.

   #6/#16: all-EV site (or in new nomenclature: all-AA sites).

   #12: Delayed security level change (mostly to upgrade security level,  
despite unsecure loading). May be covered by current security level change  
language.

More radical proposals not included

   #8: Forbid mixing of non-TLS-protected content in TLS-protected webpages

   #10: Forbid unsecure->secure password submit by clients

   #11: secure->Unsecure POST submits

   #13: Treat https-part of URL as a security indicator (also, relevant in  
relation to "Chinese whispers"-robustness, ACTION-347)

Sincerely,
Yngve N. Pettersen
