Same here: it is indeed avahi related (I invariably get a 169.254.7.253
address) but AVAHI_DAEMON_DETECT_LOCAL=0 doesn't help. I can now
reproduce it reliably at each suspend/resume cycle of my laptop.
Immediately after resume I connect properly to the local wi-fi then,
after 1-2 minutes, a new eth0 kicks in and kill the network. Opening the
settings panel and switching of the "wired" connection fixes the
problem, until the next suspend/resume cycle.

FWIW, I agree with your severity assessment.

Cheers.
