This charter seems oddly agnostic on whether or not we are defining
use over HTTP or over HTTPS. In 2017, I think its imperative that this
only be chartered for secure transports (which is, after all, implicit
in the value proposition).  I agree with Martin Thomson that "HTTPS"
is the right way to convey this point.

I think I agree with MT's point that it would be best if this binding
were agnostic about HTTP/2 over TLS versus HTTPS over QUIC (or
whatever we call it) and to the extent possible, agnostic about HTTP/2
versus HTTP/1.1 (i.e., the binding should be indifferent for the
functionality that don't depend on explicit HTTP/2 features like
push). However, I think we could send the charter out for review
w/o deciding that.
