Sorry for being such a buzzkill, but it's still not working on my side
:(

=====================================================================
Reinstalled 18.04.1 server x64 from scratch in a clean VirtualBox VM.
=====================================================================

# lsb_release -a
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
Release:        18.04
Codename:       bionic

=============================================
Enabled -proposed repo and updated netplan.io
=============================================

# dpkg -s netplan.io | grep Version
Version: 0.40~18.04.1

========================================
Set a very basic network configuration
========================================

# cat /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml
network:
  version: 2
  renderer: networkd
  ethernets:
    id0:
      match:
        macaddress: 08:00:27:6b:d8:91
      set-name: eth_lan
      addresses: [ 192.168.1.10/24 ]
      gateway4: 192.168.1.1
      nameservers:
          addresses: [ 8.8.4.4 ]

========================================
After reboot the interface is renamed
but IP address is not set 
========================================
# ifconfig -a
eth_lan: flags=4098<BROADCAST,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        ether 08:00:27:6b:d8:91  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)
        RX packets 0  bytes 0 (0.0 B)
        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
        TX packets 0  bytes 0 (0.0 B)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING>  mtu 65536
        ...

===================================================
After manually running "netplan apply" (after boot)
things go even worst: network interface is renamed
again to "id0"
===================================================
# netplan apply
# ifconfig -a
id0: flags=4098<BROADCAST,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        ether 08:00:27:6b:d8:91  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)
        RX packets 0  bytes 0 (0.0 B)
        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
        TX packets 0  bytes 0 (0.0 B)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING>  mtu 65536
        ...

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Systems relying on renaming network interfaces at boot and when 'netplan 
apply' is run.

  [Test case]
  - Write a new netplan YAML (adjusting for current system as necessary):
  network:
      version: 2
      ethernets:
          ens3:
              dhcp4: true
              match:
                  macaddress: 52:54:00:de:bd:f6
              set-name: myif0

  - Run 'netplan apply'
  - Verify that the device is correctly renamed to 'myif0'.
  - Reboot.
  - Make sure the device is correctly renamed to 'myif0'.

  [Regression potential]
  Changes in rename logic to add udev rules may otherwise impact applying 
different settings to the network interfaces. Changes in settings on network 
interfaces, missing parameters (especially on bonds, bridges) should be 
investigated as potential regressions. Other failures to apply network settings 
might also happen if there's a race between applying renames via the udev 
rules, and using the new names to apply configuration changes to the interfaces.

  === systemd issue ===

  Renaming devices doesn't seem to work.

  If I disable all other network configuration and create
  /etc/systemd/network/10-network.link with:

  [Match]
  MACAddress=52:54:00:c1:c9:bb

  [Link]
  Name=myiface3

  I expect this to cause the device with that MAC address to be renamed
  to  myiface3. However, when I reboot, I instead see:

  $ ip l
  1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode 
DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
  2: ens3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT 
group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 52:54:00:c1:c9:bb brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

  The device is not renamed.

  This link file is pretty much identical to Example 2 in
  https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.link.html.

  The renaming does work if I boot with net.ifnames=0, and oddly, it
  also works if I unbind the device and rebind it as netplan apply does.
  No setting of NamePolicy seems to help.

  === Original Bug ==

  'set-name:' doesn't change the name of a network interface on boot, it
  only works when you do netplan apply.

  Say I take this 50-cloud-init.yaml file:

  # This file is generated from information provided by
  # the datasource.  Changes to it will not persist across an instance.
  # To disable cloud-init's network configuration capabilities, write a file
  # /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/99-disable-network-config.cfg with the following:
  # network: {config: disabled}
  network:
      version: 2
      ethernets:
          ens3:
              dhcp4: true
              match:
                  macaddress: 52:54:00:de:bd:f6
              set-name: ens3

  Say I change set-name to 'myiface3' and reboot. I expect that the
  device will be called myiface3 and brought up fine with dhcp. However,
  instead I see:

  $ ip a
  1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group 
default qlen 1000
      link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
      inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
         valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
      inet6 ::1/128 scope host
         valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
  2: ens3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default 
qlen 1000
      link/ether 52:54:00:de:bd:f6 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

  The name has not been changed, and the device has not been brought up.

  If I run netplan apply however, I see the following:

  1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group 
default qlen 1000
      link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
      inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
         valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
      inet6 ::1/128 scope host
         valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
  3: myiface3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state 
UP group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 52:54:00:de:bd:f6 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
      inet 192.168.122.151/24 brd 192.168.122.255 scope global dynamic myiface3
         valid_lft 3575sec preferred_lft 3575sec
      inet6 fe80::5054:ff:fede:bdf6/64 scope link
         valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

  So names are successfully changed with netplan apply.

  This seems to be some udev-related timing or priority issue that I'm
  still trying to hunt down.

  This breaks some forms of migration in certain cloud environments.
