This feature would be useful outside of the normal LSWS vhost XML configuration (ie in an .htaccess or Apache-style .conf files), because even though the server accepts the connection to verify the Host header hence cancelling its anti-DDoS protection, it still has its benefits if the site is a PHP/Ruby resource hog and it's running on a shared environment. The web server will stop before processing the request via the language interpreter, saving a lot on load!
