limited host address capabilty

That is, 5.5 permits a single field when mapping the address of a "remote" server in the hostname config section of the GUI.

Specifically, attempting to alias the www machine to my externally hosted site, it ONLY allows for the IP Address. In my selfish case, it is a round robin hosted address and may be one of several.

Any workaround to the limitation of being allowed to enter ONLY the IP Address instead of a name wich itself  (potentially) resolves to multiple addresses?

thanks
