[Dnsmasq-discuss] /etc/hosts question

Hi!

In a quest to consolidate config files on my router box, I'm trying to
stuff all the knowledge contained in /etc/ethers and /etc/hosts into
my dnsmasq.conf file.  The ethers file is cake but there doesn't seem
to be any way to add hosts-style alias entries in dnsmasq.conf.  I did
some searching and there was a query about offsite aliasing a while
ago but nothing about hosts inside a DNSMasq served network.  Would it
be possible to get such a feature added?  I generally use CNAMES to
make for short URLs on the inside network (http://wiki/ or
http://amd64/ - for PXE reloads and such).
