If I set a DNS entry that points to a private ip (e.g, A internal.domain.com 192.168.0.5), will the allow private site setting succeed or fail for http://internal.domain.com?

Either way I agreee with this update. It's better to put the burden of knowledge on those hosting things locally and tinkering with DNS than those that have no idea that a domain does not infer ownership of said domain.
