SSL, DNSSEC and protected data enroute? (was Re: off topic - how many people use OpenID ?)

[Alaric Dailey]

This leads me to a couple of question that I haven't had time to 
research (by looking thru the spec)... Other than just getting a sample 
member page working.

Is SSL going to be required (to protect the users data en-route)?
DNSSEC to validate the DNS hasn't been modified?
Has anyone thought about this?
