The point is avoid following a link not pointing to the service, but
their own mobile device.

We can't do name resolution in js, but we can at least prevent errors
for the usual names/ips.

Aims people not understanding what they're doing.
I assume other ip or names will be used by people with minimal
understanding. (and they must as they also need to edit .hosts)
