most cool work.

I don't know if this is how we will finally solve this problem, (we might
well do so), but even if we don't this is a very good step in this
direction. I wonder if this can be generalised within the framework of
interfaces, to be less specific to ethernet..

There are other types of interfaces that have sub-interfaces.. e.g. ATM,
Frame relay, VLAN (I think) etc.
It looks to me as if we might consider what can be generalised and
extracted from these examples.
