Hi Tom,
by defaault the pfsense-bridge is a filtering bridge (it doesn't work the way it works in m0n0 where you have to activate filtering). If you set an Opt-Interface to Bridge you can leave all other settings empty, as it won't have an IP of it's own then. To allow traffic to pass the bridge you have to specify rules at Firewall>Rules for both directions (both physical interfaces)just like it was a "normal" interface. You also can specify trafficshaping rules for this interface. WAN-LAN-Bridge isn't possible as the LAN-Interface is a bit different but you can leave the LAN-Interface empty and use an OPT for that purpose.

My goal is to create a filtering bridge.. so I would like to ask everybody some questions: 1) is it possible with pfSense (or FreeBSD) to create a filtering bridge? I eared about some problems with PF and stateful filtering... 2) how can i bridge lan and wan interface? Is it possible or have I to add my own function? I saw that I have a "bridge" option only if I add an optional interface.. but I do not understand how it works..
