Title:
  Add SSL reverse proxy support like ssl_proxy in Moodle

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Mahara needs to have SSL reverse proxy support like Moodle does using
  ssl_proxy. All versions of Mahara are affected (we are on 1.4.1).

  The issue is that we are serving SSL certificates from a load
  balancer. This means the Mahara server thinks itself is http which
  causes it to generate a shared key with http://mahara.mysite.com in
  the header.

  This presents itself as a problem when trying to set up SSO with
  Moodle, since Moodle looks at Mahara's shared key, notices it's
  actually coming from a secure site (https) and says the key is
  incorrect.
