You can always create a bridge interface without a physical interface as member,
place an IP address on that on the host and use that one as a default gateway
for all your VMs and/or jails.

You need to enable forwarding for the host and route that subnet within your
infrastructure, but then you can filter incoming connections just fine and if 
you
run a lot of VMs or jails on dozens of hosts they do not end up all in the same
broadcast domain.

Also even with your setup filtering should be possible. I recommend you look at 
these
two tunables:

net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge=1
net.link.bridge.pfil_member=0

HTH,
Patrick
