     No. I don't know the Udev language. I used to trick rules to my 
needs but it was just bricolage. I see that the name of the rules files 
related to network change from version to version and their content 
shrinks. For me this means more and more is done internally, out of 
admin's control. But I might be paranoid; the author deserves that.
