I'm using a pseudo-bridge setup with proxy_arp. I haven't had any
problems at all. My setup causes me to lose 2 ip addresses for each
interface, but...

I  just proxy_arp, and then I can filter packets based on either the ip
address or interface.

Great info on the advanced routing and traffic control site.
