Allow to listen on multiple (but not all) addresses. I.e. multiple bind_address entries in local.ini.

It'd be nice to be able to listen to multiple addresses without having to listen on 0.0.0.0.

Format could be either: bind_address=127.0.0.1 bind_address=10.0.0.2 bind_address=192.168.0.2

or: bind_address=127.0.0.1 10.0.0.2 192.168.0.2

BUMP. I am with you. Really need this feature.

For security reason, it is good idea to bind node to an internal network interface, but it also disables "localhost". Replication which refers to "localhost" stops working and you probably cannot refer single node for replication (how does replicated "replication document" work in reality???)

Not only a useful feature, it is security related. "Secure by design" does not bind any ip and firewalls or authenticates the unwanted. It only allows to bind necessary ip addresses to avoid exposition at all.

Is on "need more info". What info is required?
