Comment 2 for bug 1739516

For a and d, sure if finding out what the hostname needs to be involves having the network up, there's nothing that can be done to avoid this.

For c, yes, this is kind of garbage. Utah depends on this though :/ Maybe I can get it to edit the libvirt network config to map the MAC address to a particular IP address instead, that would definitely be less fragile...

And finally for b, it would make sense that a hostname change triggers a refresh of the DHCP lease but I see nothing in the code to do this and my experiments don't seem to indicate it happening either.
