The reported "wlan" problem (which I personally don't agree with since mainline wlan drivers use the eth namespace, and out of tree drivers aren't something I care about) is also a problem when you use persistent naming for devices (via udev, nameif, ifrename, ...). Usually you want to stay away from the eth namespace when you rename interfaces to not run into problems with already taken names. Personally I usually rename my router interfaces to something like "wan", "lan" and my vlan interface would probably be called "vlan" rather then ethX. It would be nice if there where some way that the if-pre-up.d/vlan script could catch the setup rather then relying on the eth-name (when using that vlan layout). Btw, I haven't tested if this even works with the vconfig utility. I consider this wishlist severity, as the udev persistent name generator uses the eth namespace and no mainline drivers will use anything but the eth namespace.
