Yes.  Limited to exact names, no regexp matching for interface names
at the moment, e.g. `bridge_ports regex (eth|port)*`, this is on my
list of things to add next.

There are other bridge_* settings[1] as well, but I wanted to test the
waters first with this, which is very useful on its own.

Ah, of course.  I can submit a v2 patch if you'd like?
