Bug#794281: netstat: please add brackets to ipv6, because ipv6 lines are confusing

[nsa spy]

Package: net-tools
Version: 1.60-26+b1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

netstat command
please add brackets to ipv6 numbers to add clarity from port symbols.
alternate solution could be to use dots or semicolons indicating port.
