I'm in favor of dumping HTTP/S and using a faster and more secure (by default) Transport protocol altogether. Post Snowden revelations we should be focusing our energy on that, rather than continuing to hack around this old protocol to make it faster and more secure.

MinimaLT [1] comes to mind. Minimal latency through better security sounds very appealing, especially when it's not a marketint trick but a paper signed by people like DJB. The way I see it though, is not only to have a protocol, but how to get adoption. Especially when you're talking about network protocols, you need rock solid stacks in all major operating systems which is not an easy feat to accomplish.
