This is a commonly found option in other operating systems (e.g. Mac OS X) where a user can opt for 'DHCP with manual address'. Such a configuration is required in cases where a static IP is needed, but cannot be configured by the DHCP server (viz. several Linksys home gateways whose software lacks static allocation functionality), but where all other data pertaining to the connection should be retrieved via DHCP.
