<div>As a new joiner, I could not ask for more than other

<div>It's fair to say that there is no clear consensus of
whether the proposal, in its current form, is acceptable or
not. So, I am going to create a voting section on the wiki
page to help us visualise what people think</div>

<div>However, before I do that I would like to reply to a point
that was made by Andy<br>

<div><i>I'm not actually convinced that's a problem - as others
have said, <b>web browsers are perfectly capable of
converting "<a href="http://www.mypub.com" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">www.mypub.com</a>" into either <a
href="https://www.mypub.com" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">"https://www.mypub.com"</a>or "<a
href="http://www.mypub.com" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">"http://www.mypub.com"</a>as
appropriate</b>, so this doesn't really add any value.
"Letting the browser sort it out" is a great approach as it
can deal with now/near future things such as removal TLS 1.0
and 1.1 support as well.</i></div>

<div>This is not true based on my experience. I just tested on
the latest version of Chrome and Firefox and, if the URL
scheme is not specified, they both open the the URL using http
even if https is also available for it.<br>

An example is Overpass Turbo which has three different pages:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://overpass-turbo.eu/">https://overpass-turbo.eu/</a><br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://overpass-turbo.eu/">http://overpass-turbo.eu/</a><br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.overpass-turbo.eu/">www.overpass-turbo.eu/</a><br>
<br>
If you've previously run different routines on each you'll see it
displays them for each URL (tested on Firefox latest) <br>
