Research direction

No source file or test is identified. Start by reproducing the failure on iOS 12.2 with app version 2.23.8.8 against a Nextcloud server addressed by IPv6, comparing the app with Safari and the authentication step. Done means the app connects successfully and completes login using the IPv6 address.
