without imaging too much of possible features we can add in future, last
summer Tim added a --https-only feature for wget to follow only HTTPS
links.
Looking at the directives we have right now, I think that everything
related with setting up a proxy or "preservepermissions" with FTP
servers, just to give an example, must be honored or wget should not
attempt any connection.
