We have updated GUI for host name configuration in scope of the original BZ. The changes should be apparent from the pull request https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/643 comment. There is also a link to screencast with new UI - https://rvykydal.fedorapeople.org/apply_hostname_in_network_spoke_button.webm

The screenshot seems to be outdated (some in-development version). The current state is:

We should mention what is the "Apply" button for:

The host name configured for installed system can be applied to installer environment with "Apply" button.

We should also add this note to the text:

The value "localhost.localdomain" means that no specific static host name for target system is configured and the actual host name of installed system would be configured during process of network configuration (eg. by NetworkManager via DHCP or DNS services).

I think we should add this information as well.
