Why do users on WEBIRC gateways not get user mode +z?
UnrealIRCd no longer gives user mode +z to users on WEBIRC gateways using SSL/TLS IRC, unless the WEBIRC gateway gives us some assurance that the client---webirc gateway connection is also secure (eg: using HTTPS). This fixes a security issue if the client--webirc connection is unencrypted and such (actually unencrypted) users are able to join +z channels, which should be for encrypted connections only.
