I can't comment on bridging with OpenVPN (I use routed IPSec, which
*IS* a pain with windows browsing), but it's typically not that big of
a deal for me to migrate low-level interfaces.

I have a fairly complicated shorewall setup and physical interfaces
only appear in three files (hosts, interfaces, and masq).

The complex rule definitions then use the zones defined in the hosts
and interfaces file, rather than the raw interface name.  Perhaps
something similar would simplify your transition?
