"IPv4LL" is as "gnomeish" as "DHCP" is. There are RFCs named after both of the terms. So, if you don't want to see "IPv4LL", then what would you suggest as a replacement for the string "DHCP"? Quite frankly, if you are configuring your network in such a professional way that you actually might play with these options you should be grown up enough to deal with the real terms and actually also *want* to deal with them.
