For those who are interested: I have put a repository with test builds online. These packages are built for Ubuntu Dapper Drake. You can add the following line to sources.list to add the repository:
deb http://danieldk.org/apt dapper main
The networking tool requires the interfaces file listed below to work correctly. And even then, interfaces will still not come up automatically. Upstream (Debian) has changed the semantics for hotplug interfaces again, and we now have to add an udev hook to get the interfaces up at boot-time. I'll add that as soon as I have finished some assignments for university courses. But if you want to have functional networking, it is bet to avoid using the interface configuration item for the time being ;). You can report bugs through the Koala bug tracker:

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

script /usr/sbin/get-mac-address.sh
# The loopback network interface
