Mike,

This is really nice! I like it a lot from the little I've played 
around with it. However, running this under Linux and starting
Firefox from a terminal I gets lots of unneeded/wanted output
in the the console. Ie:

    Got http-on-modify-request
    Got http-on-modify-request
    Got http-on-modify-request
    Got http-on-modify-request
    Got http-on-modify-request
    Rewriting http://www.google.com/ -> https://www.google.com/
    Forced URI https://www.google.com/
    Got http-on-modify-request
    Got http-on-modify-request
    Got http-on-modify-request
    Got http-on-modify-request
    Got http-on-modify-request

This actually looks like debug. It would be nice it that disappeared :-).

Cheers,
Erik
