Description:
------------
Disable downloading content only from remote computers:

disable_remote_download = On forbids fopen("http://www.php.net/", "r"); or fopen("http://69.147.83.199/", "r"); or the IPv6 equivalent

disable_remote_download = On allows fopen("http://localhost/", "r"); or fopen("http://127.0.0.1/", "r"); or the IPv6 equivalent

discussion and an RFC[1].  For the time being, I suspend this
ticket.
