Securing access to Wikimedia sites with HTTPS by default

But that doesn't work for sites that don't support HTTPS. It would either break the embed by trying to connect over HTTPS anyways, or try to load a bunch of HTTP content into an HTTPS page which browsers will complain about.

I think most of the major embed providers support https.

I cited an example, http://www.bikely.com is used by users on the forums I host and does NOT support https.

Neither do several other embedded route/map providers like gpsies.com and so on.
