 Hi,

 It seems that since 4.2.0, all pictures added via Media Uploader to the
 post are by default linked as HTTP_S_. This happens when the user is
 administering the website via HTTPS.

 Before, you could administer the site via HTTPS but all the pictures were
 given HTTP schema by default - and that's preferred solution, because some
 blogs use Cloudflare's ECDSA certificates, and when user on Windows XP SP2
 or older Android enters the site via HTTP (that has images linked via
 HTTPS), he or she won't be able to see the HTTPS linked image. ECDSA certs
 are not supported by older clients https://www.cloudflare.com/ssl

 I think there should be an option (or config parameter) that gives you
 control of what the default images schema should be.
