Add remote host port

Keywords: GUIRPC port patch Cc:

Description

Many remote clients, including mine, lie behind firewalls and can only be reached through SSH tunnels.

It would be very useful (and trivial to do) to add a port to the dialog box when connecting to a remote machine. Once a tunnel is established, remote clients can be accessed, for example, by connecting to localhost:31417, localhost:31418 etc.

Also, this obviates the need for remote clients to need rpc and open external ports. As far as the remote clients are concerned, all messages originate from its localhost and may optionally be accessed without needing a password.
