<pre>So, when something goes wrong, all I can do is restart the service, which
mostly does nothing. And all that is left, is reboot.
If for some reason dhcp or some other component didn't do its job, I need to
know it and have some mean of repairing it, like restarting the dhclient util.
Same goes for static routes.
Say my card doesn't have a driver, so system can't see it. Or that I have had
wrong MAC for it in the config.
When networkd doest it thing, I end up with inactive network. And I can't make
networkd rescan the card and reconfigure it.
It's one-shot system, without any redundance. If it fails, it's doomed.
It would be nice to have some configureation setting for periodic rescanning
failed interfaces etc.</pre>
