 I'm getting mixed content errors while trying to preview not-yet-installed
 themes inside a WP install running under SSL.

 This happens because we try to load the theme preview from its originator,
 such as http://wp-themes.com/zinnia

 Looks like the previewing should be "proxied" via the local install
 instead.

 Samples errors:


 {{{
 [blocked] The page at 'https://localhost/~epsi/wptrunk/wp-admin/theme-
 install.php?theme=zinnia'
 was loaded over HTTPS, but ran insecure content from 'http://wp-
 themes.com/zinnia': this content
 should also be loaded over HTTPS.
