It's a common enough format that users likely will try it before reading the documentation. But supporting it implies the code, the documentation, and now a footnote that it wasn't supported between 5.6.11 and 5.6.x. IMO, forbid it, adding a version note to the documentation: "5.6.11 -- Support for the undocumented $host format 'hostname:port' was removed." bishop
