I think Matthew is right. Maybe we could set a behaviour in Fedora Server or Cloud and another in Fedora Workstation?

Just an idea, Sylvia

If the hostname is non-constant, can we also arrange that, by default,

that DHCP requests should *not* include this hostname.  We're already
starting to randomize MAC addresses -- there's no reason to give a
persistent per-installation identifier to every network.
There's two different cases that I'm not sure how to resolve elegantly.
On a home network or on a business network, having the name available
is highly desirable. On a public network, just the opposite.
