> Currently the InvokerLocator will convert a hostname to an ip address, in every case.  Need to change the InvokerLocator to check to see if the host value passed is actually a host name, and if is, keep that value (instead of automatically converting to an ip address).  
> If 0.0.0.0 is passed, will continue to use local ip address (and not local host name).
> One of the real problems with this is what to do about the InvokerLocator's equals() method.  Currently it compares the hash code of the internal uri value.  So if have 'socket://localhost:1234' and 'socket://127.0.0.1:1234' they will not evaluate as being equal.  One way to get around this would be to during runtime, check the ip value of the host name and evaluate that way.  However this will make things like putting a InvokerLocator in a HashMap very expensive as will have to do a resolution on the host name each time.
