Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/retspen/webvirtmgr/issues/378

Currently it's not possible to add an IPv6 only host via SSH. The Input Box does not accept an IPv6 in Brackets and interprets the colons as Ports (not connected (too many values to unpack)).

I've tried to add this host using a DNS name (which has only an AAAA-Record) and got the error: not connected ([Errno -2] Name or service not known)
