I've suggested something like this in the past.

The parent process would essentially maintain pools of servers for 
each virtual host. I've accomplished nearly the same thing by 
running separate parent processes for each host _without_ using 
VirtualHosts.  Sure is a lot of processes sitting around though.

Re: Virtual Server User request/suggestion (fwd)

This is possible to do on a socket-by-socket basis only.  It's not
feasible to do for a server that's got a single INADDR_ANY socket... 
unless you want to start doing NCSA-style descriptor passing.  Yuck.
