Thanks for sharing your input with us. While I agree that it's
important to keep such real-world scenarios in mind when designing
netconf/autonet, I also want to start small and flexible and add
this stuff later. At first, netconf won't be able to do much more
than ifupdown, but hopefully input such as yours will be responsible
for enough flexibility so that later adding e.g. vlan support will
be a matter of writing 1-2 shell scripts.
