Well, host:proto:port is a natural hierarchy/granularity, but it could also take the form of a URL.
   proto://host:port

But I never liked that format.

What do you use for host and portnum in the 'pipe' case?

Putting the protocol first looks more "natural" to me. E.g.:

tcp:host:portnum
udp:host:portnum
pipe:/path/to/pipe
local:/path/to/socket  # or maybe unix:...
