I don't think your scheme works too well because broadcast packet coming

Right, that won't work. So the bridge patch for the hairpin turn
is still the best solution. Btw, how will that interact with
the bride-netfilter (ebtables) setup? Can you apply any filters
that work on current bridges also between two VEPA ports while
doing the hairpin turn?
