Though it is not mentioned in the manpage, the address:port notation
without bracket is also accepted.
You can find the following comment for parse_inet_listen() in
master/master.c:

 * Parse the "listen" parameter as one of the forms:
 *
 * hostname
 * hostname ':' port
 * ipv4-address
 * ipv4-address ':' port
 * '[' ipv4-address ']'
 * '[' ipv4-address ']' ':' port
 * '[' ipv6-address ']'
 * '[' ipv6-address ']' ':' port

Yes, it should work.

Sincerely,
