	I will second this.  It's something that a couple of other apps and
even some websites (Blogger) do that is quite inconvenient.

	An offshoot of this is the actual need for the protocol part of the URL
in the first place.  In this specific example, are there any feeds that
are not carried over http?  I'm not much of a RSS user so I don't know
much of anything about feeds.

P.S. This is a good example of how to post a proper "me too" reply.  ;-)
