2012-03-10 Thread MZMcBride
Hi. https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29898 is about adding a user preference for HTTP vs. HTTPS while a user is logged in. I'd really like to see this bug resolved, as I regularly encounter HTTP links and the lack of auto-redirection is becoming a larger and larger usability

Please let's not add a silly preference like this. Let's just keep operating under the idea that all logged in users will use HTTPS, and keep moving towards that goal. Okay, I don't disagree. Do you think https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29898 should have a different bug
