--resend-on-iif status again

Hi,

I have recently found that "-resend-on-iif" option disappeared from TODO 
list on
http://ebtables.sourceforge.net/documentation.html#todo
Some time ago I was asking if there is any developement on this issue, 
especially
considering great importance of resending "own" packets back for some kinds
of wireless drivers, like hostap, to allow shaping of traffic which is 
normally bridged
inside driver and not visible to shaping queues.

Hostap driver has option to disable "in-driver bridge", but current 
bridge-nf code
block sending back such packets. It would be great to have per interface 
option
such -resend-on-iif which would allow to send back "own" packets, which are
in other cases properly discarded.

So I'm asking: What does the dissappearing of -resend-on-iif from TODO list
mean ? Is it already implemented (I think not cuz I was not able to find any
evidences of it in CVS) or is it discarded for time being ?

Thanks, Karel

P.S.: "own" packets of course means packets with destination MAC on the same
interface they were originated from, so normally they are considered 
delivered
directly by physical layer and discarded by bridge. But, I repeat, this 
is highly impractical
for wireless networks in infrastructure mode, where all traffic goes 
through one master
node and could be easily shaped there, which would be VERY helpfull 
considering
packet drops and connection losts occuring on wireless networks flooded 
with heavy
between stations downloads.
Thats why I'm pressing for this feature. If anybody sees something wrong 
on it, please
explain why ?

P.P.S.: I'm sending this message to both ebtables-devel and 
ebtables-user, because
my last message to devel somehow returned back unsent. Sorry for 
possible doublepost.
