Comment:

 The process that actually adds the `http://` prefix is the `esc_url_raw()`
 function hooked to the `pre_post_guid` filter. This can be found by
 searching for the filter in `default-filters.php`.

 I don't believe this is an actual bug. WordPress uses GUIDs as an actual
 URL for RSS feeds, and so GUIDs need to be a real URL rather than an
 arbitrary text string. With that said, I'm not going to change the status
 of this ticket, in case there's other feedback. I found a bit of
 information related to GUIDs here: https://deliciousbrains.com/wordpress-
 post-guids-sometimes-update/.
