Hi there,

I tend to use

URL(..., scheme=True, ...)

in my apps to generate an absolute URL, as documented here 
<http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/04/the-core#Absolute-urls>.

However, one of my app which has been deployed behind Apache wsgi with 
https, I noticed that the generated absolute URLs still use non-secure 
"http://...";.

It is said that there can be some special situation that the wsgi setting 
would be inaccurate 
<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43906350/djangos-request-meta-getwsgi-url-scheme-returns-http-instead-of-https>.
 
However my question here for web2py is, why URL(..., scheme=True, ...) is 
implemented to depend on wsgi_url_scheme ONLY 
<https://github.com/web2py/web2py/blob/R-2.18.3/gluon/rewrite.py#L207>, 
while the is_https is more sophisticated 
<https://github.com/web2py/web2py/blob/R-2.18.3/gluon/main.py#L366-L367>? 
And, why does URL(..., scheme=True, ...) NOT depend on the more 
sophisticated is_https instead?

Regards,
Ray
