Do you happen to have any reference about NIC naming? It seems wrong to me that linux would allow you to add NICs with the '_'.
That said, I don't agree with having a global option to change the behavior of this, provided that just leads to confusion and not the best experience. My inclination would be to simply prevent users from creating interface names that include the '_' character.
