Description Pierre Ossman cendio 2011-11-24 11:32:17 CET 
We implemented a basic redirection from http to https in bug 3842. Unfortunately it will break under certain conditions:

- IPv6
- Proxying (will redirect to the wrong IP)
- With a proper certificate (it will mess up the URI, making the certificate incorrect)

We should implement a more clever version that uses the Host: parameter it gets from the browser to do the redirect.

Bug 4580 is a dupe, but since we did most of the notes on the newer one I'll do the duplicate marking the wrong way around.
