iirc, bandwidth rules are removed, and the interface is taken offline. 
Most like it's just that way because the original code had those 
happening early by coincidence, and then later when it was split into 
the separate detach and remove pieces, it got left in detach.

Yeah, especially since I already made the patch that splits it out, etc. :-)

Hmmph. I could *swear* that was the first one I tried, and I got an 
error. Maybe I wasn't paying close attention, and it was an error about 
some other detail that I coincidentally fixed at the same time I 
switched to using inline.
