[Mod_gzip] mod_gzip excluding port 443

Reading the mini-how-to on MOD_GZIP WITH SSL MINI HOWTO I see how to get ssl 
enabled.  The problem that I am running across is I have about 50 virtual 
host on one server.  Each virtual host can be accessed through ssl and 
without ssl.  This is our default setup for each virtual host.  This way we 
do not have to manage two server domain blocks for each site setup on the 
server.  I am wondering on the next upgrade of mod_gzip if a port exclude can 
be added as an option.  For example a line in the config for mod-gzip can 
look like this:

mod_gzip_item_exclude port 443

I would like to be able to disable mod_gzip for port 443 while still allowing 
port 80 to use mod_gzip in the same server domain block.

Thanks,
