Currently I just set the frontend to '4', and just wait for the backend

Jumping straight to state 4 is fine. Unlike blkback, there is no interlock
between the hotplug scripts and netback. You could work around this by
having an interlock between your hotplug script and your domain builder. Or
we could add an interlock into netback, but this would probably have to
break compatibility between netback and net hotplug scripts.
