Thank you for your bug report, I think it has been reported before but I don't 
find it now, but a summary:
- changing hostname is not something user frequently do
- it can create issue, especially for the running session (that breaks xorg 
authentification tokens)
- the g-c-c interface required hostnamed from systemd which we don't use
