+Subject: [PATCH] status/network: Don't disambiguate wired devices
+
+Upstream disambiguates names to get user-friendlier strings if
+possible (like simply "Wired" in the typical one-device case).
+
+In more technical environments however, it is more appropriate
+to use consistent identifiers between GUI and CLI, so present
+ethernet devices as "Ethernet ($IFACE)".
