This desperately cries for some autopkgtest tests which tests various
ifupdown configurations
- managed=true/false
- valid iface config with/without a corresponding auto/allow-hotplug
- invalid iface config with/without a corresponding auto/allow-hotplug
- ...

Lot's of combinations to test...

I'd be more then grateful if someone want's to give NM a bit of
autopkgtest love.
