For the time being I think ignoring the detached state is a good way to ensure consistency:
https://github.com/opnsense/core/commit/5db3c349
I'll dig into the kernel sources later to see what is causing an address to be "detached", but it's also clear that this cannot be unset from ifconfig except for removing and resetting the address after the fact. I feel like some piece of software not us should be monitoring the state and resetting, but if this happens due to a specific workflow it might always be end up like this despite the service's best effort (e.g. mpd5).
Cheers,
Franco
