Does not really matter if the authoritative lives on 127.0.0.1 and you 
have similar functionality as you do in 1.3.x that effectively relays 
particular domains to particular IP's....it would need to be a 'pass 
through' non-caching option though.

I would imagine that this would help keep the codebases very separate 
and the 'pass-though no cache' hack would be rather non-invasive.

Anyway, cheers for the update
