[HTTPS-Everywhere] Issue with HTTPS Everywhere "Wordpress.com blogs" filter

To whom it may concern:

The "Wordpress.com blogs" filter in HTTPS Everywhere (as of
0.2.2development.3) needs an exception added for a resource that
doesn't support HTTPS. The issue is that the rating icons fail to load
on engrishfunny.com and graphjam.com (and possibly all Cheezburger
Network sites that use 1-to-5 ratings; sites that use thumbs-up/down
ratings seem unaffected). The offending image URLs always end in
_ratings.png, and immediately preceding said underscore are two
capital letters which abbreviate the site name (hence EF_ratings.png
and GJ_ratings.png).

Additionally, the video embedded in
http://thereifixedit.com/2010/07/23/white-trash-repairs-first-pancakes-then-the-world/
goes completely missing with this filter. The video is hosted by
Vimeo, but I was unable to find the URL(s) of the offending
resource(s) on a cursory glance.

Please investigate at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your
time and help.
