Maybe we should be even more explicit vis-a-vis when certain types of
interface stats are swapped - direct & ethernet keep the same/current
view, but every other type is changing. I know/understand this is a
"tricky" and "slippery" slope in order to keep up with in the future,
but I think some wording could be generated that would suffice

Also a followup patch should modify docs/news.xml!
