This is actually working for me now on bootup, or first NIC insertion.
 I'm not sure what I did wrong earlier -- perhaps missed reloading the
systemd config files or something ...

However, it does not work for subsequent NIC insertions.  It appears
that stop is not getting executed when the device is removed, as
network at eth0.service is always listed as active after the NIC is
installed, and then removed.
