Add dns hostname resolving to connection tab
It would be great to see a reverse lookup next to the IP column in the connections tab in the server admin tool. I often find myself doing a manual nslookup for addresses so that I can get a rough idea of who is on a cell phone maybe, or which ISP they are using, etc.

That would require connecting to some external service that could perform that lookup.

Yes, I do understand that. I was just thinking of doing a reverse lookup by the host OS against whatever DNS servers are already configured, or possibly 8.8.8.8
