It supports it now, but only using a URL, for example
https://foo.bar.com/. If the URL doesn't specify a port then 443 is used. I use SSL (https) on my personal content server.
The reason CC requires a URL is that SSL certificate verification (almost always) requires a host name, not an IP address. CC does not support self-signed certificates. Actually, it is better to say that the underlying http library (apache) doesn't support self-signed certs without a bunch of extra work that I am not interested in doing.
