Ambiguity in /memory text format #127

Open tomaka opened 2 years ago

tomaka commented 2 years ago

The /memory multiaddr can contain an arbitrary payload. But if this payload contains a /, then you can't properly serialize it without introducing an ambiguity.

I would propose to revert https://github.com/multiformats/multiaddr/pull/92

Or maybe just "arbitrary except for /? I believe that was the intention.
