I don't think it's overkill. Since interface names can easily be changed
could as well be almost anything, like wifi2 or frobz42. If you deem it
appropriate to focus on just one interface, the name should at least be
configurable.
Or, even better, you could easily pass the IF name as an additional
parameter to the backend (and possily even use it as additional component
to construct the interface file names).
