I have been watching batman-adv for quite a while. I really love the
progress that the devs have made and the concepts are great.
I think the holy grail of mesh routing protocols is to handle 3
characteristics of routes and route choice per packet type, possibly
using DSCP/TOS values or something.
Those 3 characteristics are link quality, latency, and available
throughput. And the multiple routing tables would be so that services
requiring low latency can be routed on lowest latency routes, that may
not have a lot of throughput, and bulk traffic can be routed through
paths that have more available throughput.
I have seen posts discussing interest in adding such features and I am
interested to do some reading on this subject as it pertains to
batman-adv. Is there anything out there? I couldn't find anything on
the site.

AFAIK nobody plans to implement multiple routing tables as you are suggesting
here. Unless I missed something ?
