I'm not entirely sure what the logic behind the change was, but I'm better
it was because in an environment where you want to run multiple instance of
the transport on a machine with many ip addresses, you'd want to give each
transport it's own outgoing IP address (to remove any problems over too many
connections per IP address).

The default value for host should be 0.0.0.0 (and not 127.0.0.1), that way
it'll bind to whatever outgoing address the OS wants to assign.
