The point has always been to ship some ifupdown-supported DHCP client

the later.
It would be totally unacceptable to make ifupdown Depend on a DHCP
client, because this would bloat most server installations.
But I would be happy with a Recommends. It's not like the people whose
server needs a DHCP client do not know that they need to install one.
TBH time is too short to manually provision IP addresses on servers.
