Any chance we could get a security option to relax this behaviour a bit?
Our DHCP servers here kind of...well they flat out suck. We see periods
where DHCP clients no longer resolve both ways. Where a few clients
resolve in circles. It's a mess. We've moved most of our farms to static
IPs but I get these evil looks from IT when I tell them to not use DHCP
on dedicated clients. It's become such a common practice to use DHCP on
internal subnets. IT doesn't want to go back to dealing with the
overhead of static IPs.

For those of us who are behind reasonably secure permiters we don't
really worry about spoofed clients joining the pool.
