I'm against automatic redirection as well. If someone prefer https then he can use it just now. If someone can't use https or doesn't prefer it, then he can use https. I see nothing positive to force https regardless the users preference. According binary distribution - I would like prefer a validation mechanism independent from particular transport protocol. E.g. a signature. In such case even FTP can be used.
