#14928: manage runserver does not allow host name as address

In Django 1.2, it was possible to use a host name (i.e., example.com) to
run a Django server from manage.py:
{{{
python manage.py runserver example.com:8000
}}}
However, that convenience has been removed in Django 1.3-alpha. It looks
like in order to add functionality for IPv6 addresses, a regex was added
([http://code.djangoproject.com/changeset/14711 r14711, line 12]) that
raises an error if non-IP-like addresses are used:
{{{
python manage.py runserver example.com:8000
Error: 'example.com:8000' is not a valid port numberor address:port pair.
}}}
The ability to run the server using host names was quite convenient, and
preferable in many cases to having an IP specified. Would it be possible
to re-enable that feature?
Thanks!
