let's not forget Zeroconf (169.254.x.x) address assignment. I have
(admittedly outdated now) patches to howl to make it work that are
waiting on someone to help me finalize them AND most integrate with
appropriate scripts so that things work as expected. This means
removing the autoconfigured address when obtaining a proper address
via DHCP, and vice versa.

A full solution should IMHO take this into account, too.

Bye,
	Andrea
