This has started happening a while ago (previously there was not perceptible delay) and luckily I don't have to visit HTTP sites very often but it is annoying and I would like to get rid of it.

I know HTTP is bad TYVM. I only use this HTTPS-only mode to forcibly upgrade to HTTPS whenever possible and be notified if it doesn't work.

Does anyone know why this is happening and how to disable it?

That timeout should indeed only last the value of security.dialog_enable_delay, so 1s. If it is 5s for you, it would be nice if you write a bug report, maybe with a screen recording.

Huh, after a restart it appears to honour that setting; it's now 1s and that's an acceptable security trade-off.

I'm not 100% sure but there may have been an update that was applied by the restart.
