As I have a non-trivial dhcpcd configuration on my main workstation, I'd like to test this before having this merged (if I have sufficient time, I'd do this tomorrow :) )

Just tested my personal setup with dhcpcd 8.0.1. In contrast to a traditional setup it doesn't set a default gateway and a default DNS server. Instead I use a local resolver and an always-on VPN and set routes to the VPN endpoint in an exit hook (see dhcpcd-run-hooks(8) for further reference). I just used this change for half a day and tested several scenarios including reboots and network changes and I didn't encounter any regressions. Also tested nixos.tests.networking.scripted.privacy.x86_64-linux, nixos.tests.networking.scripted.dhcpSimple.x86_64-linux and nixos.tests.networking.scripted.macvlan.x86_64-linux.

However it would be awesome to have some more people who could test this :)

Upstream notes 8.0.2 is last expected release for a bit, since things are apparently looking good now (paraphrased from release notes linked above :)).
