 * This is a great plugin, and with a little tweaking I was able to get it to work
   with Pages as well as Posts, but I am now running into two issues:
 * 1) The IMG tag in my case is linking to a thumbnail copy of the image and the
   outer a href is pointing to the full sized image. This plugin only grabs a copy
   of the thumbnail.
 * 2) It doesn’t work with images that are linked using HTTPS.

 * I may have partially solved my own issue. Line 305 of import-external-images.
   php has the following code:
    `preg_match( '/^http:\/\//' , $uri )`
 * I changed it to:
    `preg_match( ‘/^http/’ , $uri )’
 * Now it includes HTTPS links, which as it turns out were what my full image hrefs
   started with.
 * However I am running into a few more issues:
    1) This isn’t finding files that
   end with all caps (i.e. JPG) 2) It doesn’t seem to gracefully handle image URL’s
   with %20’s in them.
