Could Foreman, on application start up, seeding, somewhere in the process of getting spun up, create a host entry itself and ensure that it exists and has the right information? When we talk about wanting to manage our own infrastructure objects, I find it strange that we have to wait for something else to create the host object so that we can then link them up rather than having a first class object that represents our infrastructure objects by the sheer existence (you could extend this to smart-proxy as well).
