From what I can tell (man, that source is obscure), this is incredibly difficult
to achieve.

By default, we cannot create a new option without sending it to the DHCP server
(and thus breaking RFC, which will probably confuse the server to hell).
Injecting specialised hostname cases into the client parser looks to be
extremely difficult. I think it would be easiest to write the hostname into
this file when it gets created.

Matt, comments?
