Comment(by pde):

 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/https-
 everywhere.git/commitdiff/eeaffb9aa4ba0f2f2497efac746aa1fb07a265f8 This
 commit] is an workaround for much of the breakage experienced by
 Greasemonkey and Scriptish users.  However it leaves users installing
 these scripts over HTTP and I wonder whether we shouldn't just disable the
 ruleset altogether until we can get a more secure workaround into those
 extensions :(.
