Description
I am https://keybase.io/creideiki
I control the DNS domain `ferretporn.se`, and prove that by publishing a TXT record on `ferretporn.se`.
I also control the web server listening on `www.ferretporn.se`, and prove that by publishing a text file at https://www.ferretporn.se/keybase.txt.
However, the web UI seems to confuse these two concepts, and publishes a web link to http://ferretporn.se/ from the DNS proof. This is obviously nonsense, and serves only to confuse the user, since I don't run a web server at that address. A domain is not the same thing as one of the names contained in that domain.
Please change the web UI to treat web servers and DNS domains as the two completely different concepts they actually are.

Research direction
Start by locating the web UI code that renders proof results and compare the DNS-domain and web-server proof paths described here. Verify that the two proof types are displayed as distinct concepts, with the DNS proof referring to the controlled domain and the web proof to the web server name.
