Details

Sometimes we redirect to http from https which increases our traffic and slows down the loading speed (bug 404344).  For example, typing addons.mozilla.org in my URL bar results in the following series of redirects:

  http://addons.mozilla.org/
  https://addons.mozilla.org/
  http://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/
  https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/
  http://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/
  https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/

Fixing this might also fix other weird behavior like bug 374048, which is an endless loop jumping between http and https.
