thunar does not interpret Ipv6 addresses correctly

Connecting to a remote machine via sftp://[xxxx::yyy]/dir/ does result in

Error: Could not open "filesystem". Connection failed [1]

using private address fd05::22

or

Error: Could not open "filesystem". Servername unknown [1]

using public address xxxx::yy:zz

System seems to be prepaired functional, as nemo does connect above addresses without issues.

[1] translated from german version. Once upon a time LC_ALL=C; command gave native english output :.-|

System:

Linux 6.2.12-arch1-1 x86_64 GNU/Linux  / archlinux
thunar 4.18.4-1
gvfs 1.50.4-1
nemo 5.6.5-1
