Marcin, I'm also curious about your statement about security hole when spoofing a domain name via mod-rewrite. Isn't mod-rewrite *all* about spoofing URL's (which can include domain name part)? OK, it is used to remap URL trees for moving / restructuring a website (which is not spoofing) but it is also used to allow for more user-friendly URL's that are then mapped to various servers, web apps etc, which *is* a kind of spoofing. Similarly, manipulate domain name given by client to infer real URL to use in backend (also kind of spoofing).
