 Another kind of URL that doesn't get rewritten is one mentioned in a
 <link> tag.

 (This is kind of similar to the prefetch issue because prefetches are
 indicated with <link> tags too.)

 An example, from https://twitter.com/twittersearch, is

 <link href="http://a1.twimg.com/a/1278529908/images/favicon.ico";
 rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" />
 <link href="http://a1.twimg.com/a/1278529908/images/twitter_57.png"; rel
 ="apple-touch-icon" />

 Even if a rule affects those URLs, they don't get rewritten, and they
 appear to create a mixed content warning.  I'm not sure whether they get
 loaded, or simply ignored (I haven't checked with Wireshark).
