The idea of capturing a homenet config and saving it for future use doesn't seem outlandish to me, and using tools developed for managed networks, but operated robotically instead of manually, doesn't seem crazy either. But it might be a big effort and a distraction.
I agree. There are lots of home routers that allow you to take a configuration backup, that can then be restored on a different device. I expect there to be quite a few knobs to set on the home ISP-facing router for instance, regarding firewall rules, port forwards etc.
So while I do not see this as an immediate homenet concern (homenet should for now focus on getting the automatic plug-and-play functions correct), going forward I do think it would be good to look into these issues.
