Hmm. That's a good point...

I'll ask about this, but my (limited) understanding of the reasoning for this
choice is that network script does not always fork a process. For example,
setting up a macvlan does not require a daemon to hang around. 

This still doesn't explain why systemctl misses the cgroup information...
