i agree, but ...

we have user space ppp, with all kind of useful things
like filter etc. it is slower than kernel ppp, but 
everybody keep using it. so may be we can build a kind of
"smart" bridge. it will touch only specific interfaces,
collect information about route to specific MAC's etc.

thanks,

emax
