I think the reason that network interfaces stopped being created was in
preparation for MANY IPSec connections, enough so that creating network
interfaces would just be a waste. If I recall correctly the IPSec
people were wanting and hoping to start seeing IPSec used arbitrarily
any time that it could be used, including accessing web pages off of web
servers. In this case, creating and removing interfaces is just (IMHO)
ridiculing.
