Referencing my comments again from above. Keep these in mind when communicating w/ Google.

In this case, basically ignore what they are telling you and get the meta tag from Google Webmaster tools and plug it into the appropriate box in the Website Settings tab. The system takes care of integrating it.

Once you do that, you should be able to request Googlebot to index your site.

The 302 temporary redirect is because of the Enforce HTTPS Usage setting. Basically the system is redirecting all insecure attempts to load your website to a secure attempt. In the future, I may change this to a cookie based approach, but for now we are using redirects.

I have now changed the "Enforce HTTPS" method to a cookie based approach. The setting is additionally saved in a cookie that Apache can pick up when it is figuring how how to handle web page loads with its rewrite rules. I am hoping this back end manipulation by Apache may be too early for Google / Bing to detect, but we shall have to see. ;)
