One reason for resolving the system hostname to 127.0.1.1 in an NSS
service is that this allows us to list that service last on the "hosts:"
line in /etc/nsswitch.conf, thus making 127.0.1.1 the resolved address
of last resort, coming after addresses resolved via /etc/hosts and/or DNS.

To me, installing libnss-myshostname by default sound like a good
idea. Perhaps only in the laptop task as a start?

One alternative would be to move the information out of the
discover-data package, and into the Packages file instead, similar to
how Iceweasel[1] and Moonlight[2] might find their plugins and codec
