I too have found no way to get the  "send dhcp-client-identifier" to
make use of any variable or to expand "hardware" into an actual value.

I could see how this could be problematic if one has a large number of
hosts to manage.

I suppose a work around would be to write a script, deployed on all
systems, that would modify the dhclient.conf prior to starting the network.
