Comment (by nwalp at pidgin.im):

 (In [b8101f7594a660d5b9f9a0a1ad0e740ed9a78364]) fix #699

 People usually enter IP addresses into Connect Server, and that's not
 gonna
 be a FQDN, which we need for SASL to work correctly.  If this causes
 problems
 for people (i.e. they were depending on the old behavior of assuming that
 the connect server was the fqdn), then we'll have to implement something
 smarter to detect IP addresses vs hostnames, and make TheRightDecision(TM)
