Ok, makes sense (except for the choice of 54).  Two more questions:

  - who merges data from multiple links?  (I'd wish that the hybrid
    proxies compute a minimal spanning tree and perform peer-to-peer
    magic, but I suspect you're generating a config file dynamically
    and restarting dnsmasq whenever the set of hybrid proxies changes.)

  - who speaks mDNS?  The Hybrid proxies?  Or do they communicate with
    a dedicated mDNS speaker?
