I did think about it some more, also in context of a LuCI implementation and
the special role of wifi and I am convinced now that this approach generally
makes sense.

However for the vlan I wonder if we should simply use "option vid 10" since
setting anything besides an egress untagged pvid does not make sense for wifi.

So your second example above would become:

  config wifi-iface
    option network lan
    option vid 10  # instead of inheriting vid 1, use 10 as pvid


Also, just to clarify... assuming a:

  config interface foo
    option ifname somevlanbridge0.456

and an wifi iface without an explicit vid override:

  config wifi-iface
    option network foo

... we would inherit vid 456 and set as pvid, right? Or are we are always
going to default to 1?


Regards,
Jo
