Comment:

 The (original) design intent of this "placeholder" is actually to be a
 part of a value as opposed to a true placeholder. It's provided as a
 staring point for users that type in a URL. Users pasting in a URL would
 need to manually remove this default value. I'd prefer keeping the current
 behavior unless research supports making a change. However, I support
 updating to `https://` either way. I also recall some menu customizer JS
 that may be tied to the default value and that should be confirmed before
 making the change.

 This needs to be updated both in the customizer and in the admin version
 of menus if a change is made, either way. It looks like we need a
 combination of [attachment:"46312.2.diff"] and [attachment:46312-patch-
 https.diff] once a decision is made on changing from a default value to a
 placeholder.
