The current implementation sees the mere presence of "ssl" as a request for ssl, as the original implementation and docs suggested using "?ssl" alone. At various times we've discussed changing this to be more like libpq's try/require options, but that's how it is now. So it's not ideal, but it is working as designed. If you don't want ssl, don't set the property at all.
