I think the functionality is reasonable for this module.

When I originally read the bug title, I was concerned that it was actually doing a reverse DNS lookup, which would not be appropriate. But now I realize it's just computing the name that would be used for the reverse lookup.

I'm not sure "reverse_name" is the best name for this, but I don't have any better suggestions, and I could live with this name.

Changing version to 3.5, since that's the first version this could be added to.
