2018-05-17 16:55	Created	Do not match URL after stripping protocol against stored site name in scripting/automation
	Component	Scripting
	Severity	Enhancement
	Comment	It's a useless feature and a source of common problems. For example: https://winscp.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26078 The function was added in 3.6: > When URL part after `scp://` or `sftp://` matches one of the stored session names, > the session is used. This way you may setup default username and/or password > for particular host by storing them to session with the same name as the host. That use is retained, but resolving site name in URLs for all other purposes is removed.
	Status	RESOLVED
	Resolution	FIXED
	Comment	Implemented.
