LMS has for a long time done the https to http swap.  However, there
were a number of bugs/shortcomings (e.g. NB in HTTPS, redirection) 
which I think were only fixed early this year - IIRC some fixes were
backported into 7.9.*.  

In term of the BBCiPlayer plugin, I think we can end the general https
discussion in this thread - any exploration of the broader LMS & https
issues can be done in another thread.
