 In WP 3.8.1, URLS to embed tweets in posts only work with the http
 protocol. They fail with https. I find this to be counterintuitive, since
 all of twitter.com seems to be served through https.

 I realize we are limited by Twitter's APIs, but it seems it should be
 possible to support both. If Twitter's API requires https, perhaps the
 embed detection code can do the conversion before sending the request.

 First time reporter. I sure hope I'm doing this right! ;-)

 FYI I reviewed all discussion of #26844 and didn't see mention of this.
