Thank you - I definitely need to file a bug if I'm going to complain :-) And I will try your suggestions for ifupdown.

As for handling the foreign addresses, please make sure you file a bug in Launchpad about this. Then it's easier to see about scheduling time to do the work. There is nothing more to switching to ifupdown than installing the "ifupdown" package. Then, remove your config from /etc/netplan, and replace it with the appropriate lines in /etc/network/interfaces. If you're having issues like packet loss, then I would check whether networkd still attempts to manage things -- this might happen if you haven't removed the files in /run/systemd/network ... or easier, rebooted since you switched to ifupdown.
