A resolver API would be great to have.  Some people have talked in the
past about implementing an asynchronous DNS resolver in APR, since the
existing Async resolver libraries out there are not especially easy to
use with an APR app, if you felt like taking that additional step I'm
sure it would be welcome.

That said, this should really be discussed on dev@apr, not dev@httpd ;-)
