Sorry, but I fail to see why you should get a warning in this case. The
redirection takes place before the content you requested when you typed the
address/url has been displayed. IOW, you did not yet get any visual queue from
the site that would lead you to believe that it is a secure site. Instead the
server automatically redirects you to a non secure site. The fact that the
secure site visual queues displayed by the browser should be indication enough
that you are in a non-protected site. Otherwise, we would end up with the
opposite problem where we would be popping this useless warning message over
and over again.
The case of bug# 307221 are completely different. In that case, the server does
send back the content from a secure site, but some of the links on the content
sent back (images, style-sheets, etc) have origins that are from non secure
sites. As such, there is no way for the userto tell that some image or
stylesheet comes from a non-secure site unless the browser provides that
information. BTW, if the redirection happens in this scenario, it should result
in the user being informed.
Anyhow, I am not really opposed to warning the user for this, but doing so in
this case seems to me to be at least a redundant action and at worst an
unnecessary interruption.
