We are - as always - trying to clean and recheck old bugs.
This - sadly - clearly is one of them.
The situation is still correct, but with the full switch to networkd and netplan as well as the demotion of ifupdown in later versions of Ubuntu this has become even less important. And it didn#t even find enough importance/attendence before :-/

I'm retagging this as a Xenial/Bionic issue, because later releases
would just work totally different anyway.

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I just ran into a problem. I've configured a bridge as a virtual lan
  (for lxc, lxd, and these things), but also configured an USB Ethernet
  dongle to be part of the bridge.

  If the dongle is present at boot time or if the dongle is put in while
  the bridge is down, then

  
  /lib/udev/bridge-network-interface  

  
  tries to take the bridge up. Nice. 

  But it does not call ifup, instead it directly calls

  IFACE=$port /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/vlan

  
  This ifup is not aware that the interface is up and still thinks it would be down, and all the other settings (up/down-scripts ...) are not executed. Breaks functionality (and can be a security problem, since firewall settings my be skipped.)
