Comment (by ahthovaikied):

 The fact there is a workaround does not make it an invalid issue IMO.

 Open a shell in directory with a filename with a ':' in it, type
 {{{ffprobe <TAB> <ENTER>}}}, 'Protocol not found' is kind of unexpected
 here.

 git for example handles various protocol for its remote strings (ie. with
 git clone) and if file:// is omitted, it correctly interprets the string
 as a filename, even if it contains ':'.
