=> it is not wrong as the RFC 6011 is pretty clear about this: the
sip-ua-cs-domain option carries an array of FQDNs.

=> Kea does not allow to redefine standard options.

=> yes, ISC DHCP allowed this but not Kea.

but Kea provides a tool, the flex option hook library, which can
overwrite the content of any option by what you want.
