Well, the hostname is also shown directly in front of the "login:" prompt (on the same line) by agetty itself (i.e. is not generated via /etc/issue). Do you want to show it twice now, once via /etc/issue and once via that login prompt agetty generates? Or is part of this change that --nohostname becomes the default for our agetty invocations? If so this should probably be a change that is made in agetty. (Or a bug needs to be filed against systemd to add this to the agetty cmdline in getty@.service, but I am very cold towards overriding defaults of other software with systemd). Guys, you really should figure out what is actually desired before you start all that misleading bureaucracy.
