This feels impossible to me as no-one added scope IDs to DNS. There is no way for the stack to pick the right interface to use without that information. Note that ::1 would not be affected by this[0]. I thought with the introduction of %25 as the canonical separator the issue was settled on how to address link-local addresses. Turns out that's not the case and browsers intentionally do not support it (Firefox bug[0], Chrome bug[1], WHATWG URL spec bug[2]). Kind regards Philipp Kern [0] I understand the need for differences between IPv4 and IPv6 but I still don't understand why - of all the things - localhost was limited to a single /128 address, whereas it's a /8 on IPv4. Which means that there's also a port conflict gamble going on there.
