Markus Fischer commented on HTTPCLIENT-1795:
--------------------------------------------

Maybe to be considered: could this break or conflict with ordinary URLs (e.g. query string part)?

> [RFC 6874|https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6874] states that, when constructing a URL with an LLv6 literal, the {{%}} sign that prefixes the ZoneID must be quoted as {{%25}}. E.g., the LLv6 address 
> {{fe80::221:b7ff:fe8a:57d5%en4}} should be specified as {{scheme://[fe80::221:b7ff:fe8a:57d5%25en4]/...}} in a URL.

>                 .socketTimeout(1000)

> It appears that httpclient directly passes the host literal {{[fe80::221:b7ff:fe8a:57d5%25en4]}} to the Java standard method {{InetAddress.getAllByName(host)}}, which does not support the URL quoting that RFC 6874 prescribes.
