This seems like a good idea to me.

Dunno about usb wireless; I don't think we use bus location or anything
like that in the UDI for USB right now... but either way that's
something we'd have to fix in the USB bus code and not in the network
code.  For PCMCIA there's no sysfs stuff there so it goes directly under
computer and uses the mac address.
