Title:
  IPv6 ::1 is not in gnome-network-preferences

Status in GNOME Control Center:
  New
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  In the Ignored Host List, there are localhost, 127.0.0.0/8, and
  *.local.

  It includes the loopback IP address for IPv4, but does not include it
  for IPv6.

  It should add ::1  (i.e., 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1) which is the IPv6 address form.

  Also, it does not include the .localhost TLD which is a reserved top-level domain defined in RFC 2606.
