In fact, the parser doesn't even reject the one that is considered
invalid (the first).

It just happens to not work because example.com:123 is not a valid
hostname, and can't be resolved, which is then the error presented to
the user.

Which brings me to:

Since the parser doesn't error out, the only way to test this is to
check that the parser thinks the output for it is host=example.com:123
port=NONE. Which sounds like an awful way to check for this.

(Also, the discussion back then was about
git://[example.com:123]:/path/to/repo, not
git://[example.com:123]/path/to/repo)
