I think that the worst situation that might occur is a normal user, 
who doesn't want to lan-boot, will have their IP lease expire and then 
receive a new IP, and lease, from our lan-boot dhcp server. This new 
IP lease will expire who knows when? This could then leave the user 
scratching their head wondering why they suddenly can't "see" the 
internet any longer, or other subtle problems like IP address 
collision where software continues to work but will perform poorly 
with little or no reported errors. If it's reasonable, when writing 
code I usually go out of my way to avoid potential problems like this 
but, you might be right that this degree of safety is unwarranted.
this shouldn't happen as the dhcp server is being setup in a way that 
it only serves data for PXE/Etherboot/DragonFly clients.
