I think the ETX stuff comes from OLSR (but I don't know the details).
I agree with Simon that we should find a generic name (e.g. metric ?) but I am
not sure we can represent this value in a "algorithm-generic" fashion (and maybe
we don't want to).
May I suggest that the cjson output includes an entry to tell the
version of the batman-algorithm?
Users might want to do different map overlays (or whatever) depending on
the available metric(s).
