Ok. Here is something batman doesn't provision for - dual-interface setup where
you want to create a duplex link (tx on one and rx on another). Duplex link to
one other node is simple (and has to be done manually), but how would we go
about creating a duplex link to 2 or more nodes? Or one simplex link to
downstream node and one simplex link to upstream node?
Example:

A = B   C duplex link (for example I need to talk from B to A fast and I use
both interfaces to talk to A)
A - B - C simplex links (I use one interface to talk to A and one to talk to B)
A = B/B = C duplex links for all links (I talk to both A and C duplex, but not
at the same time of course)

How do we do this with batman easily and dynamically (without having to manually
mess around with routing tables etc)?
