that's somewhat more useful information than 'there's hooks in C for
it' Is there some standard daemon that listens and can bind to these
events?
And even so; can't a few lines (configuration defintion, a variable to
store a scriptname, and a call to exec the script like using a systemd
unit to setup a network be added to a single place that already does
the change?  Even if it's a systemd service that's added that in turn
listens to rtnl?
