Chrome will be experimenting with defaulting to https:// if the site supports it, even when an http:// link is used and will warn about downloads from insecure sources for “high-risk files” (example given is an exe). They’re also planning on enabling it by default for Incognito Mode and “sites that Chrome knows you typically access over HTTPS”.

    It does specifically say “defaulting to https:// if the site supports it”, so I think specifying http will still work if the site doesn’t actually support https.
