While converting the XrdCl::URL tests to GoogleTest, I noticed that it accepts zero, negative, and big (>65536) port numbers as valid. For example, "root://eospilot.cern.ch:-1", and "root://eospilot.cern.ch:281474976710656" are both considered valid. I also noticed that a URL with parameters, but without a path will be considered invalid, i.e. something like http://localhost:8080?param=value. However, that should likely be considered valid, with path normalized to "/", as that's what the browser does. URLs with empty username and/or password are also rejected, i.e., something like http://:@localhost and http://@localhost. Should these be considered valid? The browser seems to accept them. The final thing is that XrdCl::URL cannot accept passwords that contain the character @ or / in them, but I guess that's not really a bug, even if those are supposedly valid characters for passwords.
