+/* So here's the deal: net_id is supposed to be an exercise in providing stable names for network devices. However, we
+ * also want to keep updating the naming scheme used in future versions of net_id. These two goals of course are
+ * contradictory: on one hand we want things to not change and on the other hand we want them to improve. Our way out
+ * of this dilemma is to introduce the "naming scheme" concept: each time we improve the naming logic we define a new
+ * flag for it. Then, we keep a list of schemes, each identified by a name associated with the flags it implements. Via
+ * a kernel command line and environment variable we then allow the user to pick the scheme they want us to follow:
+ * installers could "freeze" the used scheme at the moment of installation this way.
+ *
+ * Developers: each time you tweak the naming logic here, define a new flag below, and condition the tweak with
+ * it. Each time we do a release we'll then add a new scheme entry and include all newly defined flags.
+ *
+ * Note that this is only half a solution to the problem though: not only udev/net_id gets updated all the time, the
+ * kernel gets too. And thus a kernel that previously didn't expose some sysfs attribute we look for might eventually
+ * do, and thus affect our naming scheme too. Thus, enforcing a naming scheme will make interfacing more stable across
+ * OS versions, but not fully stabilize them. */
