It has been said several times by the pfSense folks that traffic shaping
combined with bridging doesn't work. However, there are folks claiming to be
using it with success.

I've also checked the m0n0 mailing list archives and someone said the
following: Traffic Shaping with bridging DOES work (in monowall-- the post
was quite old) so long as you have the option "Enable Filtering Bridge"
checked.

Does that option make any difference in pfSense with respect to traffic
shaping a bridged connection? (I'm trying to get a feel for *why* or *why
not* here).

It's not a matter of can or cannot - it can work, it does not.  It's a
code thing. It'll get fixed at some point.  m0n0's shaper is also
_completely_ different from pfSense's both in technology used and
method of shaping.
