Editing doesn't work with HTTPS (GeoServer protected datalayer)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I'm trying to test editing of a protected layer in GeoServer 
massgis:AFREEMAN.GEOSERVER_TEST_PT_HTTPS on giswebservices.massgis.state.ma.us
I've set up a test OLIVER on staging maps, with this as an editing layer.
First, it seems to want to draw the editing layer right off the bat and it 
can't (there's no prompt for user/pass).  

(see attachment)

But that's not a big deal, I can add the datalayer that I want to edit from the 
folderset and then I'm prompted and once  I enter the user/pass  then it draws.
But when I try to add a point to the layer, I guess the post isn't done with 
user/pass so it fails.

(see attachment)

Also, when I try to select the pre-existing point, the WFS Intersects fails, 
error 401 Unauthorized

With editing we're going to have cases where people want to edit protected 
data.  I'm not sure how you can detect that it is protected...

        toolSettings.editTool.layers = [
               {
                       featureType: "AFREEMAN.GEOSERVER_TEST_PT_HTTPS",
                       layerTitle : "Geoserver Editable Point HTTPS" // must match whatever is found in folderset for this layer.
               },      
        ];

Note: 11/9/2011 - created proxy_https.cgi on maps which enables editing with 
https through the proxy.  Need to create a mkzip_https so that data can also be 
exported with credentials.
