Enabling zebra to tell batmand to add/remove routes needs a patch in
zebra. It would be really nice to have a batmand plugin whatever that
talks to zebra for getting dynamic HNA routes. So i dont have to modify
my zebra, but can enable a plugin in batmand (as it is in OLSR).

I need this for BGP routing. Imagine to route two batmand clouds
together via BGP. If the third cloud joins, i dont want to reconfigure
the other batmand-daemons. They just grep the routes from the running zebra.

Another big option would be to let zebra speak batman / olsr protocol
and be able to configure batman / olsr through zebra interface /
configuraion. But that would be "top of everything" and imo not necessary.
