About Localhost HTTPS -> HTTP

This extension automatically attempts to redirect from HTTPS to HTTP when the user is browsing a site locally (localhost / 127.0.0.1). The redirection happens when a request cannot be processed due to an error: for example "ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR". The user is also notified whenever a redirection happens.
