Hi, On the one side it seems, that PDO already support DSN-alias [1], that covers your use-case. On the other side I don't think it is useful to redefine a hostname (and 'localhost' is nothing else than a hostname), especially because it is only in this context, but in other contexts 'localhost' remains the same. localhost is localhost and everything else only leads to confusion.
