I like the idea of setting yiaddr to 0.0.0.0 mentioned in draft-bajko.
Draft-wu does not not have this behavior. If the client does not
understand received port set options, it will simply use the whole port
range for a given address. Other A+P clients will suffer.

I think that in the case that the client doesn't support this option, the DHCP server either has to give it an entire IP address, or not configure it at all.

I agree with your other comments—thanks for the thorough review!
