The only thing that I can imagine is a problem is the password/userid combo. So, user hijack and spoof would be the issue. Just make sure that your password/userid combo here is unique and not used on other sites...

Yes - the problem with self-sign is that the browsers reject them (requiring user override). For a personal site, not an issue. For a public one, unacceptable. Thus, additional expense if you do it.

Thus, I'm happy with things as they are here unless the browser people do something to stop supporting port :80 in the clear HTTP...
