That would be an improvement over the current status. Should I open a bug 
report?

Though if there would a meaningful (=not many false positives and false 
negatives) message during the upgrade, that would be much better. Users tend 
not to read release notes...

Also I think the issue goes much beyond ifupdown, e.g. shorewall uses network 
interface names in its config files as well.

Thanks
