[Bug 1752142] [NEW] systemd-networkd supports neither MAC address DHCP nor SendHostname - DO NOT RELEASE BIONIC WITHOUT CHANGING BACK TO dhclient PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE (or else configure netplan to use these options properly)

Tue Feb 27 18:08:27 UTC 2018

Public bug reported:

The default behavior with netplan is dramatically different from
dhclient.  You are going to cause a lot of headaches if you don't change
it to use MAC addresses and SendHostname by default -- or at least give
us a way to configure this behavior in Netplan.
