Isn't this a bug?
authdaemon does not handle the server hostname parameter in any way. It merely passes it along to the MySQL library, to establish a connection.
The server hostname can be a randomly-generated string, for all I care. I just pass it along to the MySQL library, and expect to get a valid connection back. If this is a bug, it's a bug in libmysqlclient
