I think its sufficient to say OVS is a 'real' modern switch while plain ol' linux bridge is not (so much any more). Of curse, maybe implementing other things like macvtap and / or SR-IOV achieves just the same thing (at least for me, as I then mange vlans/trunks and QoS, Spanning Tree ect. on my switches). I know you can point on OpenStack integration because you get those features for 'free' (see Ceph). But what about users like me who do not wish / can / should implement the whole OpenStack but rather want to run 'plain' oVirt?

I think this might not be a desirable way to add / modernize features as it creates a huge overhead (at least in my use case, medium business. I did this once for Glance 'just' to get a way to more easily handle import / export of image files, now I need to implement Neutron 'just' to get OVS?). Don't get me wrong - OpenStack integration is a wonderful thing witch leaves room for expansion - later on.
