[Bug 505666] [NEW] "Ignore unencrypted connections" is confusing terminology

[Bryce Harrington]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: miro

Miro has a preference option "Ignore unencrypted connections".  This is
very confusing terminology.  First, it is sort of a double-negative.
Second, it's not totally clear what is meant by "ignore".  Third, it's
not clear if this applies only to incoming connections, or outgoing
connections, or both?  And finally it doesn't indicate the scope or
breadth of the effect this setting provides.  Does it improve security?
Will it hinder the amount or type of downloads that can be received?

My guesses to these questions are probably off, but I assume the
following would be better terminology:

 [x] Only use encrypted connections for bittorrent downloads
