Not neccesarily. If you can force all your users to accept that their
SSL traffic will be decrypted then you can use a SSL proxy to log the
traffic. Only ill efect for the user is that he will not be able to
use client-side certificates, or verify the server certificate.
(all the user will se is the certificate of your SSL proxy).
