Comment:

 This ticket does not concern javascript content loops, it concerns
 protocol loops.

 > Unless...

 Yes, thought this was answered on 2012-09-15.
 Again, if browser is fed an http uri, https-e remaps it to https and sends
 it to server, and then if the https server returns protocol error, or
 plain doesn't respond, I don't want https-e hiding that server message or
 browser timeout from me (and possibly also falling back).
 And if the server protocol 302's it back to http, I don't want https-e
 taking that 302 to http directive, remapping it again to https, sending it
 again, looping around with that for a while till finally giving up and
 using the server's 302 to http, and staying http thereafter.

 So an option to disable the fallback after loop detected, aka: don't use
 http ever.
 And an option to just quit that uri on error or timeout, aka: show me.
