OK, but anyway, keeping the allow-hotplug line and doing link detection should be sufficient. Then, I don't see why systemd tries to force eth0 up, because if there is no Ethernet cable, one cannot expect eth0 to work anyway! And I don't see why systemd tries to bring eth0 up for ifupdown users because this is already done via LSB (/etc/init.d/networking, which now does link detection).
