Kurt Rose added the comment:

Totally agree this needs to be managed carefully.  My goal here was just to 
raise awareness and see if there is consensus that the behavior should be 
changed.

I came across this because an upstream process had a bug which led to 
impossible TCP ports being specified.  So, for my use case it would have been 
better if create_connection() had rejected the invalid data.

If we are talking about enhancements to the socket module, it would also be 
nice if errors included the address :-)
