That is correct. The file is created by netcfg and later copied to the target system.

If you want to see how D-I creates the file, see: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/d-i/trunk/packages/netcfg/dhcp.c?op=file&rev=0&sc=0

Committed to SVN. Will be implemented with the next upload.

Are there any other changes/optimizations that should be added to the dhcp.conf file as created by D-I?

Cheers,
FJP P.S. Did you get the mail I sent on Dec 24 to dhcp3@packages.d.o about the transition from dhcp -> dhcp3 being broken for sarge->lenny upgrades now that dhcp has been removed from testing? Do you have any plans to rename dhcp3 back to dhcp? If so, please coordinate that with us because we'll need to adjust for changes in file locations etc.
