Description

The current implemented localnet directive only supports IP address based rules. I'm not sure if the domain name based localnet exclusion, for example, similar to the following, can be implemented:

localnet *.cn

Research direction

Start with the localnet directive in src/proxychains.conf, especially the referenced configuration section, and trace how its current IP-address rules are handled. Define the expected behavior for a pattern such as localnet *.cn, including matching scope and exclusions; done means the documented domain-based rule works without breaking existing IP-based rules.
