Probably not a valuable opinion, since I don't have the skill to implement it.

You cannot do so with the KDC shipped with OSX.
There has been enough discussion of this feature of the code that we may want to revisit allowing the kdc to bind to the loopback address.
A command-line switch (default not to bind) to turn on binding to loopback might be the most appropriate solution.
Best wishes for a productive week to everyone.
