And why do we have to hardcode a port? You're right that XEP-0156
provides what we need. The TXT record could be:

_xmppconnect IN TXT "_xmpp-client-xbosh=https://bosh.jabber.org:5280/bind";

That specifies the hostname, the port, and the path. No need for any of
this discussion (other than perhaps registering 5280 with IANA).
