Description

[Baris Derin]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.2.15) Gecko/20110303 Firefox/3.6.15
Build Identifier: 

Users are logged in GetPersonas.com as HTTPS. But Personas Plus links are opened in HTTP. The browser does not regard the user as logged in when GetPersonas.com is requested as HTTP connection.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.On a fresh profile install the RC.

https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/labs/personas/personas-1.6.2rc2.xpi

2. After Firefox restarts click the statusbar icon and scroll to the My Favorites option and choose Sign in to Access My Favorites option.

3. Login the site while choosing the Remember option. 

4. After your profile page comes on GetPersonas.com, click the Personas statusbar icon and scroll to My Favorites option. Choose Go to My favorites option.

5. Personas Plus will open a HTTP connection and the browser will ask you to re-logging the site although you already logged in.
Actual Results:  
Personas Plus will open a HTTP connection and the browser will ask you to re-logging the site although you already logged in.

Expected Results:  
Browser should remember the user log in and Personas Plus should open up all links in HTTPS. 

Changing http links inside the XPI  with HTTPS  will high probably fix the issue. Bug happens on both FF3 and FF4.
