It can also be user:passw...@host to include authentication

I'll add a check for that as well. If auth details are provided then
a hostname and a protocol must be provided.

Well, for an image record, there needs to be a filename provide,
right? Therefore, a missing filename would be an exception. Or do
you mean something else?

If the hostname is followed by a : then a port is *supposed* to be
provided or else the : should be excluded/ignored[2].
