Comment:

 We should think about and understand the usability implications of simply
 flipping the pref. How do other browsers handle this and what should the
 user do when they see the url rewritten? How do we make sure people
 actually notice something is (possibly) wrong while not scaring them or
 confusing them when it is a false-positive?

 (To be clear, I haven't investigated this at all, these are simply
 questions I have from skimming this ticket)
