Why would you care for the domain name as provided by dhcp ?

internal DNS views, eg server.internal.corp.com where the search domain
gets set to "internal.corp.com" and "server.corp.com" does not exist.

By default you wouldn't want that as you roam with a fedora laptop on
completely untrusted dhcp networks that can push whatever crap as a
search path.

Yes, which is why we tentatively came to the conclusion the best
compromise for this is "if the user authorizes to connect to this
network, allow it". Eg using physical cable or WPA secrets.
