Why do you think they're ignorant ?
Isn't TCP over HTTP is normally used to attempt bypassing of firewalls ?
IMHO Firewall/Security admins are ignorant
if they don't take this into account
AFAIK you can tunnel IP over(at least):
1) HTTP(not just use port 80 for non HTTP traffic)
2) ICMP ...
3) DNS queries(needs an external "custom" cooperating DNS)
