For the record, I have no plans of forcing systemd on anyone. I still maintain OpenRC and plan to continue doing so.
As described on the wiki, it is very simple to turn this feature off either by adding your own persistent rules in /etc/udev/rules.d or by overriding the 80-net-slot-name.rules file by putting a file in /etc/udev/rules.d with that name. So, how is this a "systemd-ism"? a lot of software has defaults that you can reconfigure. William
