Ok, I see the point. The dwarning in module-setup was/is misleading. I 
guess I missed that, sorry.

Since there's currently no code that makes any network functionality 
optional (See modules.d/40network/ifup for example) question is should 
there be or should all required binaries actually be *required*?

Philippe
