Redirections and the execute command let the user read and write files
and run programs on the local system.
Restricted mode prevents such access. This is useful when you want to
grant somebody access to just Empire, but not to the host system's
user account that runs the client.

Old version recognizes the first ':', which prevents use of ':' in
host names. They are used in numerical IPv6 addresses. New version
recognizes the last ':', which prevents use of ':' in service names.
Old version treats empty host or port specially (use default).
Documentation suggests ':' is required, but the code doesn't do that.
Instead, the argument is interpreted as host, even when it's empty.
New version makes the HOST: part optional. You can't specify host and
default the port. Tough. Keeps documentation and code as simple as
possible.
Compare:
old version new version
argument host port host port
"" "" default default ""
"A" "A" default default "A"
":" default default "" ""
"A:" "A" default "A" ""
":B" default "B" "" "B"
"A:B" "A" "B" "A" "B"
