Also,

Alexei you never answered my questions out aliases with the umh modules.
Long term this important to consider.

aliases always felt like a crutch to me.
I can see an argument when they're used as 'alias pci:* foo'
but the way it's used in networking with ip_set_* and nf-* is
something I prefer not to ever do again.
Definitely no aliases for bpfilter umh.

I agree, let's not do that if at all possible for these types of
binaries.
