Details

There are two parts to this: 1. Figure out which domains from our topdomains list should be loaded using HTTPS by default and update the list accordingly (and ideally bug 1341591 would also lead to a better process for getting that list updated again on more regular schedule). 2. Update our autocompletion fallback code to work with this (the groundwork for this should already be done by bug 1427500).
I don't know the detail but this sounds more like a feature than a bug. As the direction of Fennec is not yet confirm, I would set it P3 for now.
Priority: -- → P3
Can i go more far, saying all autocompletion topdomain MUST support https? Can we consider non-https to be insecure? How many non-https are in the list, will it be a big tradeoff?
Remove any sites not handling valid https protocol in Sanitizing Methods? https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/bc2500badca2
