Why? In general, I've always advised against this. For one thing, if
you ever change your configuration around and use a different server,
"localhost" is going to be the wrong name. Why not use FQDN's from
the start?
There shouldn't be any performance issues with "localhost" over the
local FQDN. Most OS's will detect this and automatically use the
loopback interface.

If you look in your index directory, what's at the next layer? Does it
list "localhost" or the FQDN? It should be whatever you have in your
disklist.
You could create a symlink of "localhost" to the FQDN in the index area.
