I separated the server from the port with a comma because that is how 
the protocol is separated from server.  I don't think either syntax 
conflicts with anything else, but I haven't been working with enough 
different parts of GRUB2 to really know.

In my previous note, I mentioned a command for setting the default 
server, but I was really talking about the net_default_server env 
variable.  Thinking about it, an alternate default port doesn't make 
sense because you really need to know its protocol as well.  Maybe a 
default protocol or protocol/port env variable that includes both allows 
the alternate port for the protocol to be specified?
