Comment (by karsten):

 Here's a comment from anarcat on #33972 to consider when working on this
 patch:

 > That's fine: the point is to make sure we check on a specific host
 instead of delegating this to DNS or whatever. Keep in mind this means you
 need to bypass DNS while still making HTTPS verification work! It's tricky
 stuff... But since you're already using `urlopen()`, it's possible you can
 implement such a hack.

 Also, once the script actually allows checking different CollecTor hosts,
 we can update the label from "global/collector" to "$hostname/collector"
 or similar.
