Comment (by aruttenberg):
Not a restart. Restarts should be for exceptional conditions. In this case the common use pattern of PURLs is that they redirect. Always. In addition, the common case for browsers is that they follow redirects by default. ABCL should be no different.
For my case, restricting http->https would be fine, as would having a setting that controls https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/net/HttpURLConnection.html#in...
Preferred: default to permissive, warning (one time per session) in the case of potentially insecure https->http redirect with instruction about how to set default to fix.
