Erich (et al.),

Do we have a plan to transition to network interface enumeration? I think
that the transition away from the ethX and wlanX pattern in the linux kernel
happened a long time ago. The udev rules support mapping back to ethX or
other is distro driven and, therefore, not dependable.

I regret on catching this sooner.
