IMHO isn't the HOST responsible for routing? Doesn't that make dhclient
and friends somewhat unusual (not average jail(8) setup?).

no, in VNET jails the jail does routing itself, including IP address
assignment.  while i personally prefer to do this statically, i believe
it's fairly common to use DHCP (for IPv4) or SLAAC (for IPv6) to handle
this automatically, especially in mass-hosting setups.

since dhclient is fairly small (150kB) and DHCP is something people
typically expect to "just work", i am leaning on the side of putting
this into minimal-jail unless anyone has a strong objection.
No objection here. Just didn't seem like a very common jail need from
my perspective. But now that you mention it. I can easily see it's value.

Thanks, Lexi.
