[illumos-Developer] making -a default for ifconfig?

[Mike La Spina]

Linux defaults to the -a behavior, it would be good to see the same
response with Illumos.
It's a simple change and it provides what most admins want to see.

Hi.

Just a random proposal.
How about we make ifconfig display the plumbed interfaces by default,
instead of just showing the usage?
I know that it's been this way for ages, and it's the same in BSD, but
it's just something that's been bugging me in BSD, and now in illumos.
And we don't expect any scripts to break, right?
