With the 2 or 3 interfaces that most machines have, I am not sure how much
difficulty a setting like the one your propose would take off users.

On a lot of machines eth* is also used for the wlan interfaces.  I guess we
would have to support more complex regex than this which is not simple for the
users either.

I am afraid this is wontfix unless somebody files a patch with a sane
implementation.

Cheers,
