Comment(by dcf):

 Replying to [comment:13 aagbsn]:
 > BridgeDB parses IPv6 transport lines. See:
 https://tor.extc.org/?transport=obfs2&ipv6=True :-)

 So what is it doing, is it assuming that the last colon in an address:port
 string is always a port separator, even when address is IPv6 without
 brackets? The code in comment:5 would, for example, format the address
 1234::5678 and port 9999 as
 {{{
 transport foo 1234::5678:9999
 }}}
 and not
 {{{
 transport foo [1234::5678]:9999
 }}}

 So in other words, is there code somewhere that already expects IPv6
 addresses in transport lines not to have brackets, and are we going to
 break it if we add brackets?
