Description
Boinc currently lacks the possibility to explicitly specify on which network interface its rpc gui interface must be bound.
An option similar to '--gui_rpc_port' should be introduced, something like '--gui_rpc_address'.

In my opinion: if you're experienced enough to need binding to a different network interface, and to know it's currently using INADDR_ANY (and to know what INADDR_ANY even is), you're probably experienced enough to do the code change yourself too :)
