Is this just something we have for convenience, or is there
a real specification of this behaviour? What about, for example,
localhost.localdomain? Or 127.0.0.1?

Right! I was afraid we were hardcoding something that might be site

RFC 1738, section 3.10 Files http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1738.html
"As a special case, <host> can be the string "localhost" or the empty
string; this is interpreted as `the machine from which the URL is
being interpreted'."

These are not covered. Especially 127.0.0.1 is far less universal than
people tend to think.

Neither will work. There is absolutely no DNS resolution or anything
going on here, because there is no network involved. "localhost" is
just a convenience.
