::If TLS really is too much overhead, I'd suggest using ESP (from IPSec) with static keying (so you don't need the additional complexity of IKE). You can encapsulate that in a UDP packet, instead of IP proto 50.
::I think, if you're going to give users a "secure" checkbox, it really ought to be secure. The best way to accomplish that is to use a well-understood, well-studied security protocol instead of inventing yet another. The "invent yet another" security protocols all too often turn out to be completely insecure.
