The feature page for predictable network interface names [1] clearly 
states...

"As part of this feature we also want to remove biosdevname from comps, 
so that it is not installed anymore for new installations."

All the comps changes we do during the developement cycle should be done 
before we release alpha so I suggest you file a bug against comps and 
site your experience and that feature page.
