Public bug reported:

Mahara 15.04

To reproduce...

- use a site with HTTP (not HTTPS)
- Create a web service user 
- configure the user through 'Manage service users' to access any suitable method (e.g. get institution users)
- use the web services test client with any protocol you like and execute the selected method
- An error is thrown...

"exception: Forbidden - HTTPS must be used"

The documentation (such as it is) indicates that HTTPS is only required
for token based authentication, not simple username/password
