Google has access to historical DNS, and end users, so they could assist
end users in also reaching VHosted web sites that did not have current
or reachable DNS, if that is the goal. Something as simple as a browser
addon that modified the http host header. There are manual ways of doing
this now, using the Modify Headers Add-on for Firefox, for example.
