Description
It would be nice, that when resolver is to check address for connecting, it firstly tried to find an address in /etc/hosts, and then if not found tried to perform as it is done now. As it is specified in trunk/resolver/TODO .
Example: Somehow I have a server.org on lan as 10.0.0.1 and on internet as 11.11.11.11. Also I have a server server.com on lan as 10.0.0.2 and on internet as 12.12.12.12 . I want to make s2s connection between them, but not to use standard SRV dns queries (because it will make connection server.org<-net->server.com), but before that, check the correct entry in /etc/hosts, that contains local ip (so that servers connected fully directly to each other). Because it is faster and more reliable connection (if one machine loses internet connection, both servers can still 'talk' to each other).
