[Development] Octal IP in Version 5,1 ?

[Randolph D.]

because the textline has :xxx:xxx.xxx:xxx: format?
now user can decide

1) 017:xxx:xxx:xxx:
2) 17_:XXX:XXX:XXX
3) _17:XXX:XXX:XXX

and when the octal comes into the frame, we get several IP addresses, which
will all not connect the apps.

This is a Qt issue, as it was not given in 4.8 ?
