It's more a question of "security" imo: the @require contract between
GM and the user is that GM will download and include the file seating
at the given URL. If we start following redirections, we might end up
installing something else.
There have been talks about adding integrity checks to @required
files. In these circumstances, following redirections would be ok.

By the way, how come you get a redirection from your localhost in the
first place?
