Probably if one goes to implement such option, it would be also a good 
thing to let this be configurable using "local" blocks. I mean, in order 
to enable/disable the implicit trust per IP address. That way one could 
point one service, such as the web frontend, on an IP adsress, that 
defaults to "not secured", but have others that default to "secured".
