Supporting host records with fixed addresses in LEASEQUERY would be
good, but isn't a priority for us right now.  It wasn't done in the
initial implementation of our LEASEQUERY support because the host
records aren't organized in a way that it would be scalable.

It's not impossible to create an organization for fixed-address host
records (so it can do efficient lookups by broadcast domain or by
single ip address), but it's a bit more work than we could do in the
initial support (which if I remember correctly was mostly a submitted
patch).
