HTTPS support?

Maybe do something with this, or at least link to it in the docs:

I tried adding curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false) to the rest of the curl settings, but that results in {"status":{"http_code":0},"contents":false} for an HTTPS request. Why CURL is responding false is beyond me, and there's a good chance it's just me, but I think it's worth looking into.
