Subject: wish: remote_ip()
The remote_host() method is useful, but it would be nice to also have remote_ip(), which always returns the IP address. This would be symmetric with Apache2::Connection, which offers this.

I could be wrong, but I think that the already-existing remote_addr function already does what you want.
