[HTTPS-Everywhere] Safari

[Jacob S Hoffman-Andrews]

That does indeed sound like it should work. Is it possible to also 
rewrite resources within the page that way, or is it only the top-level 
frame? Could you send a reference to the documentation of 
beforeNavigate? Are you aware of other Safari extensions that rewrite 
URLs in beforeNavigate?

This sounds very promising, and assuming it all looks good, it would be 
awesome for you to write a proof-of-concept Safari version!
