Can I rewrite https to http?

[Jore]

Hi there,

Hmm. I imagine this will be tricky to not run into infinite loops, if 
it's the behaviour of the browser to redirect a HTTP page to a HTTPS one.

Wouldn't it just be easier to serve your site over HTTPS? Because in 
order to handle a redirect you'll need a valid TLS certificate anyway...
