If you have multiple virtual hosts pointing to different jboss portals sharing 
the same db/content, I could see where you want to push support for virtual 
hosting on the App server side.

However, I don't understand that if the portals have different db/content, why 
a front-facing Apache is not an acceptable solution.  I would think in most 
cases you want Apache in front of the App server anyway, regardless if using 
virtual hosting or not.  An App server is great at handling dynamic web content 
and 'application' stuff.  Apache does well interfacing on the network-level 
with DNS/virtual hosting, proxy, redirect/re-writes, etc.  Use both their 
strengths.

I would be concerned about putting a lot of jboss's time into developing a 
app-server based virtual hosting solution which would be a workaround/patch on 
the app server to replicate what already exists (and more efficiently) on 
Apache. 

I just want to see Jboss Portal 2.6 as soon as possible, too, so a little 
biased ;-)
