yes, that won't hurt - whatever it's good for. The examples in section 2.2 of
RFC 4291 show this format only for ::192.0.2.1 or ::FFFF:192.0.2.1 type
addresses (without limiting it explicitly), and I'd rather not accept those.

Whether or not the output format should be canonicalized is a different issue.
Once you start it, it could be applied elsewhere (strip the trailing dot
in domain names, adjust zip codes), but that's more the db wg's business.
