How annoying. 

But it doesn't seem ~quite~ that bad, couldn't you carefully write
down the hardware address of your Ethernet interface and if that
hardware ever died, program your new card's hw address to match the
old one?  (Most Ethernet interfaces don't have hardwired addresses
anymore, do they?)
