What separator would you have chosen?

What would anyone have chosen ?

4 hex digits vs. 1-3 decimal digits provides adequate disambiguation.

1:2:3:4 or 1.2.3.4 ? Each segment of the former is a valid 'decimal' number and also a valid 'hexadecimal' number. Each segment of the later is a valid decimal number.

Still does not answer the question I posed of what separator would anyone have used for IP6 addresses.
