    In the case where during the construction of the `StaticHostProvider` we 
add a host H1 which resolves to addresses A,B,C. Then at some point in the 
future A goes offline and the DNS system has changed H1 to resolve to hosts 
D,E,F. With the current code wouldn't `serverAddresses` now contain hosts 
B,C,D,E,F instead of only hosts D,E,F?
    
    Is this something even worth fixing?
