 * The option to “Always serve files over https (SSL)” is unchecked, but the link
   for an uploaded file is https anyway. Am I misunderstanding the intent of this
   option, is there another way to ensure an http link, and/or do I need to just
   manually change the link?
 * Or perhaps is a bug.

 * On the bug possibility, I don’t see anything in the WordPress options table suggesting
   that switching off “force-ssl” is saved.

 * Hack for now: In amazon-s3-and-cloudfront.php, in function get_attachment_url,
   changed https to http (line 323 of version 0.6.1).
