Adding :PORT to IPV6Gate

Hi -- I found myself trying to get IPv4 to a buildbot (at port 8010) on a IPv6 box recently using http://www.sixxs.net/tools/gateway/ (Which is a very useful page btw: thanks!) The issue seems to be that the boxes to enter URL's don't permit :PORT syntax with URL's. Any chance the page can be enhanced to include :PORT syntax with URL's? If you need a URL to try, here's where my buildbot lives: http://wareham.rpm5.org:8010 at least for the next 1-2 weeks. No biggie if adding :PORT can't be done ... I'll survive. Thanks! 73 de Jeff

That would require us to have our gateway listen on every single port number that is possible, that really is not going to happen. One could devise a scheme like http://port8010.wareham.rpm5.org.sixxs.org/ or something, but I really do not see the advantage there and I am pretty sure that soon people will be abusing this a lot for things like http://port22.theinternet.com.sixxs.org and all kinds of other weird things.
