I see your point. But, taken to it's logical conclusion, we'd scrap sysctl.conf
completely.

Actually, that would be the right thing to do - it's currently a badly defined
ad hock kludge.

I presume this issue will be shaken out during the initscripts reworking and
NetworkManager revisions in any case.
