The network-bridge script currently expects to be started just once; on the second call you won't have a veth0 any more and thus the script will not do anything to your $netdev.

Right, but if one wants to operate on veth1 and its match vif0.1 (or veth2 and vif0.2, etc) then some mechanism is needed to indicate this.

Is it possible to create more than one veth0 in dom0?

Yes, by settings loopback.nloopbacks to a higher value.

Do you want ot have a look into combining your work into mine?

I would be more than glad to do so -- though apparently Ewan has also offered to do the merge himself.
