[Bug 865515] Re: virtual machines should not have nat on servers

[Jamie Strandboge]

I agree the default of nat is appropriate for desktops and I feel quite
strongly it should not change there. The default for servers is probably
better as non-nat (though this could be debated), as this bug suggests.
However having different behavior depending on the type of system it is
would likely cause confusion. Perhaps it would be appropriate to add a
preseedable debconf question to allow proper setup of the bridge for
servers. This could be of priority 'medium' so desktops don't get
prompted, but server environments (which would arguably use preseeding
more often) can set debconf as part of installation. Admittedly, this is
not perfect, but might help.

My 2 cents
