I tested it with a (OVS) bridge and intport defined in 
/etc/network/interfaces, both are brought up without the init script 
without any problems. 

There are pre-up and post-down snippets installed in /etc/network/.. 
which should handle calling ovs binaries to add/remove the interfaces 
defined in /etc/network/interfaces. 

If you have a test or real setup that does not work without the init 
script, please give details!
