I've seen a similar scenario. Yes, I guess it's up to client's machine which PADO to use. Typically host machine answers to the first PADO it gets. It could be assumed that the load would be split between two redundant NAS boxes as the least loaded NAS is gonna serve clients first (I mean it would send PADO back to the client first). I believe same applies to IPoE; the least loaded NAS would send DHCP offer faster and the client would use first offer it gets just like in PPPoe scenario.
