Some questions and some considerations.

I was wondering what happens if 85-ifupdown.rules is removed. I believe 
/etc/init.d/networking would still do its job and networking would work fine.
If a card is removed (or added) udev wouldn't care (dinamically) about the 
removal (or addiction), am I wrong? But, if I understood correctly how udev 
work, a reboot would allow udev to get the change in the interfaces. So if this 
is the case I believe it should not be a problem to remove 85-ifupdown.rules, I 
think the number of users that remove or add cards is lower than the number of 
those who need a static IP for wireless and however a reboot should make 
everything working.

However, NM 0.7 should solve the problem by allowing system wide
settings.
