I agree, Dave... once I understood the issue and possibilities better, it became clear that it wasn't much of an issue, especially when I could just use local.xyz.com, which I'd never put on public server.
It's been really convenient to have an actual domain to use for development as opposed to locahost/xyz/index.cfm, etc. Gets me closer to the production server environment during development.

There are several tools out there to let you manage your hosts file, but frankly it's pretty easy to just keep it open in a text editor, and keep a command prompt open to flush your DNS after each change.
