This is a change we've done yesterday to improve password security.
Although the previous form submitted the login information to a SSL page, a man-in-the-middle attack (a transparent proxy at an ISP, wireless hotspot or even corporate) could easily add javascript code to read the fields when clicked, before being submitted to the SSL form.
To login now you click the button labelled [Click to login] and that will give you the SSL-enabled login page, which cannot be modified by a MITM attack.
