 If we want to fix it long-term, we'd have to look at one of the previously

That's still just a work-around, not a long-term fix. What happens if
the user has parentheses or something else which confuses Oracle in
their database name or username?

That said, I don't see the problem switching to hostname:port. That
seems like a more standard format anyways. It's not a complete
solution to this problem but it does seem like it's less likely to
confuse people and programs, Oracle included. We're getting awfully
conservative about pretty minor changes these days.
