That's remarkably good timing. For the last couple of days I've been
planning to find someone who could run those tests for me to confirm

Actually I just downloaded IE11 to my Windows7 computer. It means I
can't test IE9 now, but it's probably better this way.

that HTTP still has precedence in IE.

Well, it's normal but not a hard and fast rule - i made it shorter so
