Hello Frederic, This is an interesting question. Funny thing is in the past day I had the same doubt, but after some minutes I realized FreeBSD already has everything that is needed to handle a "virtualization network" by itself. Obviously what's missing is some kind of GUI or guided path to do it easily. At least that's what I thought.
Today I have seen openvswitch site and understood that it has many more features, but frankly non of them actually raised any interest in me. Maybe I didn't understand them, but in general id like to jeep things simple, as simple as possible. And simply put openvswitch seemed to me the next project aimed to fixing a badly designed tcp stack not working good for many VMs and such. And after all that's the reason why I'm using FreeBSD and not Linux, and that's also the reason one of the most powerful networking appliance as pfsense is based on FreeBSD and not Linux. So, simply put, instead of spend time adopting something like openvswitch I'd rather spend time writing something for FreeBSD directly (and maybe merge it with bhyve project)... But, hey, that's me...
