I think for 'type' some common types should be available as strings,
'ip' and 'arp' being the obvious ones. Others can be added if there is
a call for them.

For people who want to filter only incoming or outgoing ARP (some
people want this), it'd be nice to have the usual 'via' options for
this. But I understand why this really is not feasible for the current
implementation in the bridge(4) code.
