Comment (by shooper):

 Reviewed RFC 7617 which covers this use case.

 https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7617

 Relevant part: “ Furthermore, a user-id containing a colon character is
 invalid, as  the first colon in a user-pass string separates user-id and
 password from one another; text after the first colon is part of the
 password. User-ids containing colons cannot be encoded in user-pass
 strings.”

 I’ll update this patch to match this description. The change being that a
 additional colons should be part of the password.
