bb-hosts and DNS lookups



I create the bb-hosts file using syntax like this

0.0.0.0 hostname.domain.com  #ftp telnet

This (at least from what I understand) tells the server process to lookup the IP in DNS and connect their. If my assumption is correct, I would love to see the info page reflect the DNS IP address that was resolved (and not 0.0.0.0).
