I don't see this implemented. You rather don't return methods when the
filename does not contain a possible method string at all.

The check for (string-empty-p user) and (string-empty-p host) wouldn't
be needed, you are in the else branch of (or user host). IOW, user and
host are already nil, nothing left to test for them.

But I'm not convinced this is the proper solution. I still don't
understand why the default method must be suppressed.

Best regards, Michael.
