User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:89.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/89.0

Steps to reproduce:

HTTPS_Only Mode is enabled in the main settings.
Then go to the Proxmox package repository website:
http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve/dists/buster/pve-no-subscription/binary-amd64/
It redirects to HTTPS and asks for a password. This repository does not have any authentication on standard HTTP protocol and available packages can be listed. So I clicked the padlock icon next to the URL and set HTTPS_Only Mode to OFF for this specific website. Then changed the URL back to HTTP, but Firefox still redirects to HTTPS and I can access the repository.


Actual results:

Firefox still redirects to HTTPS protocol, thus I can't access this repository.


Expected results:

Firefox should not redirect to HTTPS protocol if an exception for a specific website is set. See attached screenshot.
