Who are can commit changes into ng_iface.c to to support interface
renaming ? 
For my concern there are two possible ways:
  1. annouce setifname message for netgraph interface 
     for set interface name (not related with netgraph node name)
     I have send this patch in list some time ago.
  2. extend standart netgraph rename to rename interface simaltaniosly
     with interface node rename.

This change will be helpful I think.
