Yep, that's all correct. On the MediaWiki side, we check for the presence of a
forceHTTPS cookie in MediaWiki.php, so when safari hands us back the cookie
forceHTTPS=deleted, it triggers the redirect to https.

The check could ensure that the cookie value isn't "deleted", since we set it
to 1 when we want users to stay in https.
