openSUSE used to do that, and dropped it (in fact, the NIC naming scheme
seemed to change every release for a while in openSUSE).

Personally, I thought the udev generated persistent-net file was
the best solution. If I wanted a more "human readable" name, I
could always edit the file, but at least the name never changed
once it made it into the rules. We've already seen names change
once with updates to the new software, and I'm sure they will
change again.
