I would realy like some easy mechanism to have dhcpclient results select
a file with rc.conf settings that override parts of /etc/rc.conf. Even
to the extend that if I get a dhcp lease for a know network where I don't
use dhcp to set things like

auto_ifconfig=NO
net_interfaces="cs0"
ifconfig_cs0="inet 192.168.XXX.XX netmask 255.255.255.0 mediaopt full-duplex"
defaultroute=....
dhcpclient=NO

If this would be implemented as a regulary rc.d script, it would need a way
to restart rcorder and the whole rc.d execution, this time passing the
selected configuration as a parameter and avoiding a second dhcpclient
run.
