Sebb commented on NET-650:
--------------------------
bq. if you have directed something to use a proxy then you want the remote
mapping of the name and not the local one.
Not necessarily.
There may be no remote mapping, so you might want to add your own local
definition.
Also the code may not know that a proxy is being used.
As it stands, the constructor new InetSocketAddress(host, port) will use the
local definition if there is one.
To force the use of the remote mapping, one would need to use
InetSocketAddress. InetSocketAddress(host,port)
