IMHO:
If you're going to discourage something, always give an alternative. What
would you do if you had to bind to one address on a machine with multiple
addresses?

We shouldn't encourage the use of BindAddress at all.

This is good stuff. I hope you'll bring it forward to 2.0. A couple
comments below.

Although hostnames are technically allowed, I think we shouldn't encourage
them.

I think it deserves a note that this doesn't protect a "single file".
Rather, it protects the file admin.cgi in the directory and all
subdirectories.
