I don't recognise this as a very frequent use case nowadays, with
so many laptops etc. So for simplicity, I configure my laptops and
desktops alike, with wicd, dhcp and resolvconf. I put hostnames, MACs,
and static nameservers' addresses into the "cheap plastic
consumer-grade router" (which has no DNS server) because that doesn't
travel anywhere, and /etc/hosts looks after LAN addresses. And if I
want to do fast bulk transfers between machines in the same room,
I connect a cat5 cable and use the IPv6 addresses to avoid disturbing
the normal networking through the router.

Cheers,
David.
