Ignore protocol (http vs. https) when looking up a page #8

I use HTTPS Everywhere, and when I click on a Reddit link to a site that it supports, the URL is the rewritten. Socialite works fine until I restart the browser, at which point it forgets which pages had its toolbar shown. Then when I click on the Reddit icon in the location bar to get the toolbar back, it tries to look up the https URL and fails.

Any chance that either a) Reddit itself could (perhaps optionally) ignore http vs. https in info.json requests, or b) Socialite could try both forms if the first one fails?

Alternatively, could Socialite attach metadata to a tab that is saved across session save/load, so it can preserve the toolbar no matter what? (That would be nice, since it would tell me after a restart which pages came from Reddit in the first place.)

If you go into the addon preferences and click on the sites tab, it is possible to add a new site (I called it Reddit SSL) with the URL https://www.reddit.com/ and the type of Reddit API. This will enable the addon again on SSL 👍

The problem isn't with using Reddit via SSL, it's with looking up pages that can be accessed using either HTTP or HTTPS via Socialite. Reddit distinguishes between the two even when they access the same content.
