I think this is the right move.

The old Unix IP address parsing was partly a result of the slack coding
that was normal at the time, and partly to do with old-style classful
addressing. Neither of these are best current practice any more. In
addition to that, slack IP address parsing has led to a number of security
problems resulting from obfuscated URLs. It's a bad idea all round.
