I’m not hundred percent sure about this – but it reminded me of a past experience where sometimes $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] can act up in a proxy situation.

Found this in Google:

Seems that some guy had the same issues with Zend Core behind a reverse proxy, when the $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] did not pick up correctly.

Although I’m talking under major correction, I’d like to think they do it for just in case.

Thnx Darb, you actually have a very good point! I knew that I had to be missing something.

Perhaps it relates to being able to enforce a single domain, i.e. you have many aliases a site can be reached, but you want traffic to re-direct to a single domain. Your solution might be a problem if you are doing housekeeping/cron scripts, and want to mail users stuff and include links back to http://your-ideal-domain.com, but are launching the scripts on the commandline, or if you have a specific server you use for housekeeping (say http://cronjobs.your-server.com).
