State-Changed-Why: 
This had been discussed before and will not be incorporated. You can do
that manually if needed and you can use cloned_interfaces to setup tun0
in advance. Reason for this being loaded as soon as possible, is that
the network stack is protected, if you do it differently there is a
window of opportunity to break in. So you can do that locally if needed,
but it will not get incorporated into the tree. This is a summary of
what had been discussed before. Thanks for taking the time to submit
this and for using FreeBSD!
