You can use bridge networking with a custom bridge not connected to
any dom0's eth, and making dom0 a router/firewall for domUs. If you're
familiar with managing router/firewall, this setup is actualy easier
to manage.
One example of such setup is virbr0 created by libvirt (bridge + nat).

You can try :
- create a bridge manually on dom0 (call it brtap0 or whatever)
- put tap0 on that bridge (you can use openvpn's --up argument to do
this automatically, see openvpn's manual)
- add another interface on domU's config, but specifically use
"script=vif-bridge" on that vif's definition, and put it on the same
bridge
That way you should be able to use both route and bridge networking.
