Shouldn't this go upstream?

Upstream does not really support Archlinux even though they have a --with-distro=archlinux. The archlinux --with-distro just straps out all plugins other than keyfile (which does not correctly handle netcfg or dhcpcd or other coexistent managers for archlinux as it does for other --with-distro choices).
