I agree, also that would be really useful for another purpose: testing different virtual hosts (other than the default virtual host) on a local network/computer, that don't have a global domain name. The validator could use the given IP and request the given hostname, and it would get the right virtual host! That would be really neat! > And then there's file upload. Of course. But, in my opinion, that's not exactly convenient for everyday use, and totally awkward in case of dynamic content (cgi, php). I agree, the hostname in question is bad and must be changed, no question about that.
