Yes, I like this approach much better: let the user specify the MAC address for the bond, use that address 
when creating the bond, and be done with it. Then the carrier state, the order of enslaving devices, etc. 
are all irrelevant.


Perhaps also a button to easily generate a locally-significant random MAC address (eg, 06:…).
