Description

We recently got both a "Security" panel on the Admin UI Dashboard, and a brand new "Security" tab/screen to edit security.json. This is cool.

Now that we have APIs to check this staus, I propose that the Admin UI displays prominent red warnings in the dashboard panel when security and/or SSL is not enabled. This will supplement what is logged to solr.log today.
