Adam,
having look at the assigned port numbers

http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers

it's very clear 8080 should be used for alternative HTTP connections
like Sage. But its less clear there is an agreed alternative for HTTPS
connections.

pcsync-https    8443/tcp    PCsync HTTPS

If you work in the IT industry, and know from practical experience
that 8443 is the most suitable, then I'd go with your suggestion.
