Web Sites can only have one virtual host configured for its public or private pages- "www.example.com", but it is very common to have web sites registered under different domains, for example when the site is translated to different languages and has a different domain for each one.

REQUEST
Add support for a site to have more than one virtual host through Liferay configuration.
Also it would be nice the possibility of configure a default language by virtual host to improve the i18n support.

WORKAROUND
Use a reverse proxy (Apache with some rewrite module) and rewrite every request and response to change the URL.
