Comment:

Thank you for the ticket Ludwig. Apologies I didn't give more context as
to why I found the ticket confusing

I have revised this to be a new feature, rather than a bug, as this is a
change of behavior which has downstream consequences and not everyone
would want to accept these URLs
This would likely want to be configurable, similar to `schemes`, possibly
with an allow all option.


Our process for requesting features is to first propose and discuss the
idea with the community and gain consensus. To do that, please consider
starting a new conversation on the
[https://forum.djangoproject.com/c/internals/5 Django Forum], where you'll
reach a broader audience and receive additional feedback.

If the community agrees with the proposal, please return to this ticket
and reference the forum discussion so we can re-open it. For more
information, please refer to
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/internals/contributing/bugs-and-
features/#requesting-features the documented guidelines for requesting
features].
