Indeed, it would be.

The question is, should we change this, considering that we've already
removed such behavior for the hostname.

Arguable, it's simpler and safer to change the domain name...

What does this affect? Does the current behavior break something besides
the output of hostname/fqdn?

Title:
  dnsdomainname not set from DHCP

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  network manager is using DHCP to request an IP address.

  root     14465  0.0  0.1  10184  3756 ?        S    13:08   0:00
  /sbin/dhclient -d -4 -sf /usr/lib/NetworkManager/nm-dhcp-client.action
  -pf /var/run/sendsigs.omit.d/network-manager.dhclient-eth0.pid -lf
  /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient-e8aec25f-e171-4d3c-99e1-07ed1b3384bd-eth0.lease
  -cf /var/run/nm-dhclient-eth0.conf eth0

  The lease file contains:

  $ fgrep -i domain 
/var/lib/dhcp/dhclient-e8aec25f-e171-4d3c-99e1-07ed1b3384bd-eth0.lease 
    option domain-name-servers 141.42.2.22,141.42.1.11;
    option domain-name "charite.de";

  Yet I'm seeing this:

  $ hostname
  senftopf

  $ hostname -f
  senftopf

  $ hostname -d
  $ 

  As you can see from the output, the FQDN is "senftopf" (which is clearly 
wrong, since it doesn't contain any domain part).
  Yet the DHCP server transmits "option domain-name "charite.de";" which is 
seemingly ignored.
