Performing the hostname_bounce on first-boot only would actually break the instance in two cases instance on shutdown/startup as the VIP is released on instance shutdown. When the user restarts the instance, it would be given a new VIP, but keep the instance ID. In this case, scoping the hostname_bounce to per-instance would result in instances that never come back. 

I agree that this not ideal, but the implementation of the VIP requires either that the hostname has to match the fabric name, or DHCP has to be configured.
