No it does not require this and it would not make sense to be exact as the handle
should be valid across server restarts. The exact location of the server may
well change during the lifetime of the handle.

You want the ability to specify the the jndi properties that are associated with
a handle in general because you can't determine what the correct hostname/ip
of the server machine is. It could be some internal name/ip that can't be used
externally.
