I also am interested in doing this (as I imagine several users are).
Any plans to support per IP hosting?  In specific:

Set SSL cert per IP address
Set default domain per IP address (to allow users login with username
instead of username at domain and have the %d available based on the IP if
none is provided)

Thanks for the excellent work so far.
