I kinda though a really complete FAQ was a good thing :-)
Besides, there's a bunch of confusing new stuff coming
down the pipe with the 2.3 spec, so the risk of running
out of good questions is low.

It will give you somebody's IP address, but sometimes
it might not really be the user's IP address (think
WAP phones, or AOL users, see the archives). If you
just want to log something, and don't much care if
it's 100%, then no worries. But I mention the problems
because some people really, really want to use the
IP/hostname to identify users, and that can be tricky.
