I should then try to remove hostnamed just to figure out why in

1) hostname from initrd : fqdn
2) NM starts : hostname-originial == fqdn
3) dhcp : short name
4) an external tool issues hostname <short name> and creates another 
higher priority NM profile

NM (hostname-mode=default) restores the fqdn (as seen in traces) instead 
of the short one in 3) which, according to what you just explained is 
the LAST externally set.

I'll try to figure out this myself...Thanks for your help.
