While I agree with your statement I disagree with your logic.  I'm not
an OEM... I'm an administrator trying to integrate Ubuntu and the lack
of of the mentioned feature in oem-config DOES act as an impediment to
introduction.  Contrary to your statement changing the hostname IS a
simple matter.... but not easy to do with machine imaging.  If the OEM
is incompetent enough to set the host name on a web server and then run
oem-config then let that OEM deal with the consequences.  On the other
hand, imaging like hardware is so insanely common that it makes sense to
offer the capability.

It is possible to make a checkbox that offers the option of setting the
hostname during the first run after oem-config.

oem-config should also set the host name
