Great. Patch committed.

It would be good to also know if draining works as expected when
data is available, though.

You can test this by configuring the client to aggressively pipeline
requests while using "tolerate-pipelining 0" (default) and frequently
loading websites without waiting for pages to load completely.

That's because the client doesn't use https:// either.

That's probably true.

It's a pretty recent change for feature request #3596294 and I don't
feel strongly about it. If we revert it, it should probably be reverted
before the release, though.

In my opinion adding https:// isn't an option because Privoxy
neither knows that its actually https:// and even if it was,
the path would be missing. It might confuse less people, but would
also be technically wrong.

Only if you run into any other issues, thanks.
