In a dhcp environment, it (presently) is! I think that the world is moving toward dhcp as the primary method of learning appropriate IP configuration data. Cable modems systems, etc. require it. We need the dhcp client in /sbin and enabled by default. It is always possible to override this with static addresses. The inverse is not true.
