Comment (by boonebgorges):

 > Yes, side effect is that it won't load at all due to ssl cert.

 Can you explain this in more detail? If https://site.tld/wp-admin/ is
 available, then `<img src="https://site.tld/uploads/2015/whatever.jpg" />`
 should work.

 > Wouldn't it be better to use all attachments schemeless?

 Yeah, we considered this, but it's hard to do it at the level of
 `wp_get_attachment_src()`. That function may be used to generate URLs used
 in emails, RSS feeds, and other places where clients may not understand
 schemeless URLs.
