Hi!

> I suggest a new option called bridge_via to specify the routing interface:

I've been thinking a bit on this as I didn't like the bridge_via naming as
this is just to specify the interface that we take the MAC address from, it
doesn't specify a via in the sense that the packages will go out through
that interface or similar.

I came with the idea that specifying the name of the card that we want to
take the address from on bridge_hw instead of its mac would make more sense
and shouldn't be too difficult to implement.

So... you would write something like this:

iface br0 inet dhcp
        bridge_ports all
        bridge_hw enp6s0

What do you think about this?

I have just uploaded a package with a news file that talks about the change
of how the kernel assigns the mac but doesn't have this implemented yet, so
if we agree on this I would need to add a new news entry as it looks like
this is important.

Regards.
