Bug Description
The first bullet point of Netplans' Key Goals is "Usable in initramfs (few dependencies and fast)".
This is currently not supported in Ubuntu.
A basic approach would be to use the same /etc/netplan/*.yaml whenever initramfs depends on networking.
Supporting netplan in initramfs has the potential to go beyond the 'ip=' kernel command line / initramfs config.
Initramfs-tools does generate a netplan config, that is not what this bug report is about. On the contrary, that feature actually limits the concerned interface to 'ip=' feature levels even after initramfs, since it effectively overrides said interface's config in /etc/netplan/.
