I would hardly call this a restriction.
How are your clients going to deal with a dynamically changing IP address? Ever thought of that?
In the recent past it was also impossible to *change* the IP-address, apart by means of re-installing the whole product. Also, question like this one are best being answered by reading the installation documentation, rather than by hitting buttons and running into avoidable problems.
