I agree.  What is the best way to do that?

 - make network-manager-service extend etc-service?  I think in this
   case we'd need to pass the host-name to
   network-manager-service-type somehow?  It feels strange to make the
   system config's host-name a configuration parameter of
   network-manager-service-type just for this reason.

 - Create /etc/hosts in network-manager activation, using the result
   of ‘hostname’ at that point?

 - ...?
