I think that it could be applied in situations of servers, such as data
centers where there are multiple tenants. (Many VM infrastructures have
shared front-end networks)

I think that temporary addressess are not a feature in some of those
deployments that everyone wants, and thus having a registration system is a
feature.

This does not solve the smartphone on new WIFI issue, which is a different
situation completely.
