I have been bitten by this as well, leaving an ifcfg-etho.prev or similar. Now

I'm afraid if this counts as one of your top 10 bugs, you've obviously not been
doing this for too long! (No offence meant - it's just that this is relatively
innocuous and you've got a lot more unpleasant experiences to come).
If you try and raise this as a bug you're likely to get the response, it's not
a bug, it's a feature.

ps - don't try to get an emacs versus vi argument going - but this wouldn't
happen with another editor.
