Thank you for your bug report, I think it has been reported before but I don't
find it now, but a summary:
- changing hostname is not something user frequently do
- it can create issue, especially for the running session (that breaks xorg
authentification tokens)
- the g-c-c interface required hostnamed from systemd which we don't use

Title:
Cannot set Device name (hostname) under Details section in System
Settings on 12.04
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
The "Device name" section under Details in the system settings on
12.04 appears to be greyed out. I'm not sure why but I would expect to
be able to change the hostname of the system I was using.
