I hear you, and I see that the words you used for a and b are different. 
The problem is that I'm not convinced the solutions for a and be different.

For instance, let assume we had the capability for the host to suggest 
its own generated CGA as something that the DHCP server should allocate 
to the host. If we had this, then it would enable two things: (a) allow 
the use of CGA addresses with DHCP, and (b) allow the DHCP server to 
verify that all requests relating to this address come from the owner of 
the address.
