But match_ip only accepts IP addresses/networks in the list, and I can't
understand why the same matching as with the hosts ACL condition can't be
used here, but with an arbitrary address to check.

Can you elaborate? Do you have any examples of particularly dirty situations?
Should a domain name that resolves to multiple IP addresses have to have
*all* those IP addresses match the host list?
