Some of them are already covered, I will process the others when I find time. Pull requests and concrete issues will help but thanks anyway.

Do not use 0.0.0.0 as replacement URL. 0.0.0.0 will send the request to your own host. A bit like 127.0.0.1, only that it may choose other interfaces than the loopback interface.

It may be reasonable to either use something with the .invalid domain (RFC 2606) or a RFC 5737 IP like 192.0.2.1.
