Sure... I know,... it's just that we're probably better off with
suggesting people only one variant... so we can phase out the other on
the long term scale...

Yep.... which one are you going to consider the "canonical" one? Plural
or singular?

As said, that probably depends on whether you accept more servers per
line.
I guess that would be better.


Perhaps you should also ask the ifupdown people what they're going to
plan with their stanzas at the long term.
Especially for the "address" keyword a version that supports more
addresses per line would be reasonable... and I guess the concepts
should be kept more or less sync on all the /e/n/interfaces keywords.


Cheers,
Chris.
