Let's do it the other way round with two approaches:

* The 1-2-3 wizard enables RSA automatically if openssl is present. This
will work out of the box for many of the new installations.

* Show a yellow information box when openssl is present but RSA is not
enabled. Provide a link to enable it with a single click. This will
convert many of the old installations.
  This has only one disadvantage: it will bother all the site admins,
whi have already installed some other means of authentication. Maybe the
warning should be suppressed if another auth service is found or the BE
is forced to run in SSL mode.
