Comment (by teor):

 You can, but please be aware that it might not get merged if we don't have
 anyone to test it.

 We should do what we currrently do if the control port is set to a public
 IP address:
 * check if the control port will bind to localhost
 * if not, warn the user that the control port should not be public
