As many already suggested using IP numbers and hostnames can be tricky
(and risky). What do you think about using jail name from /etc/rc.conf?
When a name is given, jexec could read /var/run/jail_<name>.id and use
jail ID from there?

I know it will only work with jails created by rc.d/jail, but I think
it's good enough.

PS. I'm not against this functionality, but we should be much more
    careful, especially with hostnames when
    security.jail.set_hostname_allowed=1.
