 I wanted to avoid the assumption that the domain would not be used
 anywhere else in the URI.

 For instance: "http://www.mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/www.mysite.com-
 screenshot.jpg" - this could cause problems.

 With the regular expression, it says "See if you can find the HTTP_HOST
 value with http OR https and remove those - but only if that are at the
 beginning of the URI".
