If // is used as the protocol in the extension tag, we could rewrite URLs
returned by the feed to be protocol relative before outputting them. 

But every URL in a feed may not be on  the same domain as the feed. Unless
every one of those URLs is on the same domain, we can't be sure they actually
support both protocols. If the feed is on a different domain than the content
of the feed (such as with Planet Wikimedia, FeedBurner, etc.), the protocols we
can use to access that content are a mystery. We can tell from the URL that we
can use one of http:// or https://, but we don't know if we can use both unless
we check.
