But once you go down the route of udev (or equivalent, eg vdev) and persistent rules, then "eth0" is just a subset of "admin set interface name".
The problem with udev and eth0 is, that you have race conditions if you let udev rename the interfaces with names from the kernel space. I have seen these race conditions more than once.
So it is a good idea to use names that the kernel is not using.
