Hi,
As I mentioned in another review, I'm currently traveling and will have pc access
end of this week (Sun), I'll try to review the set as much as I can through my phone in the
meantime. Thanks for reworking it, generally looks good.
A few comments below,

Please use the boolopt api for new bridge boolean options like this one.
