I have a certain distaste for work-arounds because of buggy clients :)

It is curious that it doesn't try to request the same IP it just had.. I
guess it really does fully disassociate.

I think it would be too risky leaving a session pending when you get a
requested release. Perhaps the client is a wired PC that reboots after each
user... hmm.
