There is a third solution: Neither use the first nor the second. Then the storeview is only reachable via manual change and will be saved in a cookie/session.
I think your options are best practice. Without the possibility to identify the storeview by the url, it is not possible to copy and paste urls and end on the same page as your friend.
And in the end, the customer decides what fits best for him.
it seems your session not set properly for your ssl url,
you check for the cookies that
Ensure you have mod_headers.so enabled in Apache instance

You can remove the SID in two ways:
Go to your Magento admin panel > System > Configuration > Web. Under Session Validation Settings, set "No" against label 'Use SID on the Frontend". If this doesn’t work, then move to second option below.
Edit the file at app/code/core/Mage/Core/Model/App.php (somewhere around line 222), protected $_useSessionInUrl = true; Change that value to "false". That should now prevent session IDs appearing in URL.
Hope this will help you!
