When I got the existing error message I had no idea what it meant. A little digging in the code reveals that the problem was I provided a URL that did not contain a hostname, so aiohttp was unable to parse the hostname out of that URL. Here is an alternate wording for the error message that I hope will lead the library user to understand what went wrong more quickly.
What do these changes do?
Are there changes in behavior for the user?
