Could you please post further examples of such interfaces files generated by
d-i, especially wireless configurations.

Please also note that e.g. if you setup your (ethernet) connection using a
static IP configuration, we do not comment such interface configurations either.

So the issue about NM not managing certain devices extends to ethernet
interfaces as well and this behaviour has been so ever since lenny, so I'll mark
this bug accordingly.
