Yeah I know I'm replying to my own message, but I also have another idea
about this. Another option would be that for the next release we just
stop parsing and use config_* but without trying to do any conversions.
The disadvantage of this would be that people would have to change their
/etc/conf.d/net files immediately after they upgrade or their network
might not come up.
It is true that this would be easier from a coding perspective, but
would it be ok for the users?
