This is a major (and long-planned) move on CloudFlare's part. They're going to lose money in the short-term, since the primary reason many small-to-medium-sized sites upgrade to CloudFlare Pro is to get SSL support.
Many other sites will now switch to CloudFlare to get instant (partial) SSL. CloudFlare isn't a charity so they'll need to introduce new features or limits to get people to upgrade to pro. Though they may get enough enough revenue from their partner one-click apps to offset their costs.
