 == The Issue ==
 When I load up wp-admin under https, I notice in the html source returned,
 that there are several references to content on my site that are not
 referenced as https, but rather as http. I believe this bug stems from
 ''get_option( 'siteurl' )''.

 == Some Evidence ==
 In one case, the foliopress wysiwyg plugin, the plugin fails to render at
 all and it seems the offender is a call to ''get_option( 'siteurl')''
 returning ''http://<correct stuff>'' rather than ''https://<correct
 stuff>''

 == Reproduction ==
 I've seen this occur under a few circumstances. Here's some steps to
 reproduce one of them.

 === Steps ===
   * Set ''define ('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true);'' in wp_config.php
   * Install [http://foliovision.com/downloads/foliopress-wysiwyg-0.91.zip
 Foliopress Wysiwyg]
   * Enable Foliopress & attempt to edit a page (should be forced to
 connect under https).

 === Result ===
 You'll find the WYSIWYG won't appear. If you look at the page source,
 you'll see references to it's components are pointing to http://
 addresses. This can be traced back to line 167 of ''foliopress-wysiwyg-
 class.php''

 == Other Reproductions ==
 I've had this occur without the forced ssl admin directive in wp-
 admin.php. I find if I just point my browser to the https url of my site,
 the same effect occurs.

 == Other Comments ==
 I've tested this both on Windows (running [http://www.wampserver.com/en/
 WAMP]) and on Linux (running Ubuntu/LAMP). Of course that shouldn't make a
 difference, and it doesn't. The behavior remains in both cases.

 == Severity ==
 For me this is nearly a blocker level severity, which is why I'm declaring
 it as "major".
