Oh, sorry, somehow I lost the comment field from the patch.

This patch adds source directive to allow splitting the configuration
into smaller chunks. Support for this exists in ifupdown and guessnet
for quite a long time already.

Also, in my opinion it's be better to include it into the release, so
users can start using it already. Well, some ifupdown hooks scripts
don't support it yet as far as I know, but for majority of the users
having this support in ifupdown, guessnet and NM should be enough.
