idp on port 80 only ?

Is it reasonable to run an idp on port 80 only and not 443 ?

Maybe endpoints like https://idp.example.org:80/...

I was thinking about clustering and the cloud, and it looks like most
cloud providers charge extra for https, since virtualizing it is
apparently non-trivial, and I was wondering if the idp could provide
communication security over port 80.
