thanks a lot, that sounds great indeed!

I only read news articles about it, but seems that Chrome will soon 
start showing a warning message, later this year then blocking 
downloads. So if there's an easy command to disable all HTTP mirrors, 
check the impact, and re-enable if required, might make sense to fire 
that off soon. We could also test with the Chrome beta version and see 
how we are affected.
