Using hostnames instead of IPs is, as mentioned above, something under consideration in that patch.

However, note that until now, we've intentionally kept it as just IP addresses since using hostnames adds a lot of operational complexity and burden. I realize that hostnames may be preferred in some cases, but this places a very large strain on DNS systems. So basically, it's a question of do we add the feature, knowing that most people who use it will in fact be making their lives more difficult, or do we keep it out, knowing that we won't be serving those who actually require the feature.
