RE: How to represent address/port pair?

That's the right RFC. Notice two relevant things from this RFC:
 
1. this is the only legal place for square brackets in a URI
2. the syntax does not support scope identifiers (e.g. fe80:1:2:3::1%4)
 
I don't know the reference, but the square bracket notation can
and has been used in other places, assuming the application
knows to parse it.
 
If possible, don't use scoped addresses. They are not supported
in DNS either, to the best of my knowledge. Deploy an RA server
so that your nodes can get a valid global prefix, and not need any
scope ids.

You may find it in RFC2732 or in RFC3986, which obsoletes 2732.
