Suggestion about the wrapper scripts. It would be nice if they had a
mode enabled by an environment variable or a command-line option which
printed the equivalent "ip" commands which they issued, so people can
learn the new "ip" interface if they are so interested.
Also, I'd recommend making the scripts carefully cover 100% of the
ifconfig, route, and netstat commands, since these commands have a
very long history, and are extremely well known by many sysadmins, and
used in many, *many* shell scripts.
