I also wrote libwrap patch a few years ago:
http://dovecot.org/patches/1.0/tcp-wrappers.patch

The problem is that it doesn't work when login process is chrooted, so I
thought there's no point in including support for it.

I was thinking about adding support for this in Dovecot v2.0 using some
kind of a separate non-chrooted daemon.
