Comment:

 Am I misreading line 20 in {{{xmlrpc.php}}} incorrectly?  The intent of
 this patch is to only do this check when fetching the {{{rsd}}} document.

 See [http://intertwingly.net/blog/2007/10/31/WordPress-SSL-TLS-and-AtomPub
 this post] for background.  Some place in the traversal from
 {{{http://foo.wordpress.com/}}} => {{{xmlrpc.php?rsd}}} => {{{/wp-
 app.php/service}}} => {{{/wp-app.php/posts}}} or {{{/wp-
 app.php/attachments}}} there needs to be an indication that {{{https}}}
 should be used.  Doing this when rendering the front-page would clearly be
 overkill.  Doing it on every fetch of the service document would be
 better.  Doing it only when fetching the discovery document seems (to me
 at least) to be better yet.
