Description Frederic Crozat 2009-10-25 17:00:16 UTC 
it is not possible to enter ipv6 address as a proxy host, because get_hostname_from_uri is trying to extract scheme and port while user is typing.
Comment 1 Richard Hughes 2011-04-06 09:17:34 UTC 
I'm guessing this is broken with the current panel too, right? I'm thinking user:password@${ipv6address} has to be parsed a little more carefully.
Comment 2 Tobias Mueller 2011-08-02 08:59:24 UTC 
This sounds like it's a known issue that needs to be fixed. Hence I'm setting to new.
Comment 3 Dan Winship 2013-02-01 21:28:27 UTC 
This doesn't apply to the current panel, which doesn't try to parse the hostname
