Maybe. There are two reasons (that I can think of) why it might not. One is whether the frontend server is serving the requests to a shared instance (or set of shared instances) of web2py. If different domains go to dedicated web2py instances, there'd be no point in domain routing in web2py. Also, you might want to do your domain-to-application rewriting in the frontend server, in which case it wouldn't be useful in web2py. There's of course overlap between those two conditions. FWIW, from the router's point of view, Rocket is just another wsgi frontend server.
