You didn't read my description of ifplugd, did you? I refer to
laptop-net's ifd in it.
However, I tried laptop-net, but it is far too intrusive for me, it
does too much things at the same time. ifplugd is a much more
simplistic approach.
For other reasons a seperate daemon like this useful, read the threads
in #146949 and #162763. Thanks!
