I use this configuration. You still use eth0 and eth1 and not br0. It works
as intended. tc operates at one level below bridging code at the device
queue level as I understand it. Thus whether it is a bridge or router, we
shape on the physical interface level. I guess like imq (virtual device)
some tinkering will need to be done to use br0 as a device on which QoS can
be applied.

Hi!

Usually if you have a machine and traffic passes through it:

              +-----+
          eth0| QoS |
 -------------| box |-------------
              |     |eth1
              +-----+

You can shape outgoing traffic on eth0 and eth1 effectively shaping both
incoming/outgoing traffic.

With bridging and above setup you only have a single device br0 - my
question is whether you can shape both incoming/outgoing traffic on this
device (i would presume it is not possible) or do you need to redirect
traffic passing through br0 to imq0 and do shaping on outgoing traffic on
both br0 and imq0?

If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.
