Proposal: enable stateless persistant network interface names

[Paul Wise]

Is there a tool to list interfaces based on their characteristics?
Right now at $work our initial setup code does glob eth* in
/sys/class/net in order to setup a bond interface using all NICs, so
network works no matter which NIC one plugs a cable into. It sounds
like this proposal would break that, so we would need a way to list
all Ethernet interfaces but not the bond interface and not any USB
network interfaces etc.
