Google "sorry" captcha now supports HTTPS
Good news! It is now possible to do the Google captcha over HTTPS, but only through https://sorry.google.com/sorry/...
If you try instead https://www.google.com/sorry/... it will just redirect you to the Google homepage right away.
Another issue is that the "continue" GET variable, which holds the URL for redirection, will default to HTTP even if the original search was through HTTPS, so it will have to be rewritten, too.
I tried the following (rough) ruleset as a proof of concept, but for some reason it doesn't seem to do anything here (which may be a problem with my installation):
<ruleset name="GoogleSorry">
<target host="www.google.com" />
<rule from="^http://www\.google\.com/sorry/\?continue=http" to="https://sorry.google.com/sorry/\?continue=https" />
</ruleset>
