I know I promised to give more detailed feedback, but time is not on
my side at the moment.  Still, I'd like to say why I'm not in favor of
this work.

Fundamentally, the main use case seems to be trying to merge two
different link types.  One link type for low power nodes, one for
"more traditional" nodes, if you will.

I think we have *routing* for this.  Merging what is really two
different L2 types so that they can try to be one seemless L2 domain
still doesn't feel right to me.

Just my top-level 2 cents.
