Restrict Jetty to accept requests from a whitelist of hosts

I intend to run a Jetty server (for generating PDF files with PDFreactor) on a dedicated (virtual) machine; I don't want to have it on my webserver.

According to the PDFreactor documentation, the Jetty server must run on localhost to be usable by the Python API; but a port and host can be given to the PDFreactor constructor, and apparently the restriction to listen to localhost only can be lifted.

Can Jetty be configured to accept requests from some whitelist of hosts only, or is it preferable to put it in a VirtualHost and let apache httpd do the work?
