Unless you're using NetworkManager, which after two years and offers of
patches from the community, still doesn't support pre-up or post-down.

(I've come across this recently with a situation where I want my main
interface to become bridged for libvirt, but only at the point that the
specific interface is started. I think it's time for me to ditch NM and
return to network/interfaces. Again. Sigh.)
