I just noticed the appdmg and pkgdmg package providers (used on osx) 
download packages using the curl flag "-k" aka "--insecure" which disables 
certificate checking.

Is there any reason for this?

At the very least there should be a way to turn insecure mode off. Really 
it should never be enabled by default.

This introduces a pretty big security vulnerability to workstations set up 
with Boxen, as remote dmg downloads are encouraged.
