(RADIATOR) SQLRADIUS help/wishlists

Hi Guys - 

I'm using the SQLRADIUS function and am trying to build in a few features
and stuff using hooks - which I need a bit of assistance on, and I have a
few wishlists for the next Radiator version:

Basically I'm trying to do some intelligent choices/logging based on which
host was ultimately selected:

eg.  When I get a reply from a particular proxy-radius server, I want to add
a PoolHint that means they get assigned from that wholesale customers IP
Pool (I can't trust the ISP to add this attribute themselves).  Is there any
way to get the IP address of the Radius server that replied...?

Another goal I have is to have some counter increased indicating how many
successful replies from each radius host, and how many no-replies.  Thus
somehow I need to figure out whether SQLRADIUS's inbuilt no-reply hook has
changed it to a success or failure.  Is it possible to get this info out?
I've examined the source code but can't seem to find some sort of public
variable I can look at.

A few wishlists:

WISH:  Can AuthBy roundrobin support be added into the SQLRADIUS code. The
way I understand it is it chooses host1, host2, host3, ... in that order
only progressing to the next host when the first one fails.  Maybe another
column def could be used to indicate host hunting order/algorithm.

WISH: Option to strip realms and add/remove reply attributes on a per-client
basis.  Perhaps add additional column definitions:

    - StripRealm or RewriteUsername expresion
    - AddToReply
    - StripFromReply


Love the product and keep recommending it to ISPs over here. Thanks for the
good work.
