A side note: it might be interesting to support having exit policies that use hostnames rather than CIDR prefixes; I suspect that many people (though perhaps not alexyz@xxxxxxxxxx) like to implement blocking address ranges by whatever reverse-resolve DNS says the hostname is. Of course, the risk is that this could greatly add to the complexity of checking exit policies or make exit policies larger and more unwieldy. But what do people think? (Personally, I am not sure that this is a good idea, but I think that it is worth considering.) Geoff
