I've been using Google Chrome lately. :-( But it looks like HTTPS Everywhere now finally supports Chrome: <https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere>, so I suppose I can resolve this for myself. Still, it'd be nice if it were done for everyone. When users customize their own browsers like this, it actually slows down widespread adoption of a "new feature" like HTTPS. That is, if HTTPS Everywhere didn't exist at all, the large number of techy Firefox users getting annoyed by hitting http links would be more helpful in getting auto-redirection working. Anyway, off I go to install that extension.
