Happily, our default init system already does that.
systemd's authors see the lo device as being less like networking and
more like part of the "API" of a Linux machine, so pid 1 sets it up
during early boot, rather than leaving it as the responsibility of
whichever of ifupdown, NetworkManager, systemd-networkd etc. you're
using. That seems like a reasonable approach to me.
