You COULD cheat it a bit and setup rewrite rules in .htaccess for any cases
that don't match a list of domains

RewriteEngine On 
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.validdomain1\.com #list each domain that
should exist 
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^validdomain1\.com #list each domain that should
exist 
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.validdomain2\.com #list each domain that
should exist 
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^validdomain2\.com #list each domain that should
exist 
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.validdomain3\.com #list each domain that
should exist 
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^validdomain3\.com #list each domain that should
exist 
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.defaultdomain.com/$1 [L,R=301] #rewrite to a
default domain

This was my method of making sure that people were on valid domains

Just a thought

Yeah, apparently this is the only solution.  I looked through the code too,
and JURI is using HTTP_HOST, which won't exist in this case.  Seems as
though it could use SERVER_NAME or at least failover to it.
