For a primary interface with a static address, I may be able to add the information as IPADDR2 (etc) in ifcfg-eth0. But how do I do this if the primary interface gets its address via DHCP?

Install "nm-connection-editor". It gives you a lot more capabilities, including doing that.
I've tried that and it doesn't. When the connection method is DHCP, the additional address area is grayed out.
I just tried it and it worked. I was able to add a static address to my wifi connection while keeping the dhcp one. "nm-connection-editor" has to be run from the command line, there is no icon for it. The Gnome connection editor doesn't support doing this.
