'host' is a convenience procedure for creating host-entries while 'host-entry' is the record type, I don't see how these could be merged together.
The host procedure could be changed to 'simple-host' to become less confusing. (It's a bit longer to type but I think it's acceptable)

Thoughts?


Cheers,
Bruno
