Hi Andrew, my understanding from back when you introduced that support
into ifupdown was that you intended for people to use ifupdown directly
for bridge and vlan management rather than through the hooks provided by
bridge-utils and vlan.

Since Ubuntu is doing a bit of weird magic here (compared to how things
are in Debian) and the actual bridge and vlan creation is sometimes
triggered from udev entirely independently of ifupdown, it seemed to me
like there wouldn't be a real way of changing ifupdown to cope with this
and that rather than having two piece of software try to do the same
thing, turning the whole vlan and bridge support of in ifupdown seemed
the right way forward.
