Links to some sites, fx facebook, get rewritten breaks.

The reason for this is probably that Facebook and other websites checks browsers(/bots) user agents. SharedItems2WP probably sends the default UA set for PHP when doing HEAD requests to return the definite path.

This should be relatively easy to fix. I'll put it on my TODO.

This is now fixed! I added proper headers to the HEAD request and all seems well. See: http://github.com/worldeggplant/SharedItems2WP/commit/296c1e137cd87cfdc5ba292d15ce7af923592873#SharedItems2WP.php-P18 for tech deets.
