One of my colleague is asked to accept such a possible format like 
192.168.5.0x44.

Now he needs to decide whether his app. should validate or he can leave that 
validation to OS(And file a bug to Microsoft). Or whether such a format should 
be allowed at all..

 That's the question..His opinion his such wierdos shouldn't be allowed and it 
should cause error.
