I agree; there should be an option for this.

In many corporate networks, your machine may get a hostname assigned via DHCP. But in home networks, the Internet router typically uses whatever it gets from the machine during the DHCP request; otherwise you have to deal with something nondescript as "Linux", or just the IP address, when trying to 'ssh' to your machine.

Adding hostname= in the kernel's command-line allows you to set the hostname.
