The network configuration routine isn't implemented in src:dropbear but in initramfs-tools-core's /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/functions:configure_networking(). All dropbear-initramfs does is to call that function in its hook script. AFAICT initramfs-tools=0.140ubuntu14 adds vlan (and IPv6) support but I don't know if these patches are viable for Debian. -- Guilhem.
