Okay, fair enough. :)

On reflecting, I think a generator which reads ifcfg-* format, and
ifup/ifdown compat scripts should probably be considered hard prerequisites
for using systemd-networkd by default. That gives a common "language", keeps
current tooling working, and makes an easy path for a user to switch if a
particular need isn't covered.

That might work: note that it still means that any applications depending on NetworkManager APIs are unusable on the cloud images: I suppose you don't want much intelligence inside the cloud image anyway, so that's not a blocker (but would be a blocker for any non-cloud uses).
