I have to agree with Dave here. I prefer to have more transparency (even
if it increases the topology a little) instead of bridges that can't be
seen and are hard to debug.
I understand your case for wanting to forward mDNS traffic over L3, but
why would you want to bridge Babel multicast? This will just hide
potential problems when they occur.

Running babeld
is a solution, but not ideal since it makes Babel deal with
extender-nodes as real nodes, adding more signalling traffic to the network
which should be unnecessary and complicates our network graphs.
The signalling traffic is trivial. (especially compared to bridging
multicast????)
The complications are possibly beneficial. I have gone through hell
finding weird
bridged networks in the path.
