Actually I did, but not directly :)

Here's an excerpt from the man page:

When  ifupdown  is being called with the --all option, before doing
anything to interfaces, if calls all the hook scripts (pre-up or down)
with IFACE set to "--all", LOGICAL set to the current value of
--allow  parameter  (or  "auto"  if  it's  not  set),  ADDRFAM="meta"
and METHOD="none".  After all the interfaces have been brought up or
taken down, the appropriate scripts (up or post-down) are executed.
