Comment (by nacin):

 Might this filter be too low level for plugins to safely use? I feel like
 it may try to be used in place of other aspects like forcing SSL and what
 not, rather than for correcting the `$_SERVER` vars.

 Chances are, someone filtering this will likely still need to forward on
 the remote IP and possibly the server port. And this filter does nothing
 for plugins checking `$_SERVER['HTTPS']` on their own, which isn't "wrong"
 per se — is_ssl() is more of a helper function than a WordPress
 environment function.
