Seems like the STP options are so common and necessary that it would
be a priority over seldom-used bridge_opts. I know what STP is and I'm
not even a networking guy - never even heard of half of the
bridge_opts that have switches in the UI.

Anyway. I wanted to try the openvswitches, so I reinstalled all of my
nodes and used "openvswitch (Technology Preview)" as the engine-setup
option for the first host. I made a new Cluster for my nodes, added
them all to the new cluster, created a new "logical network" for the
internal network and attached it to the internal network ports.

Now, when I go to create a new VM, I don't even have either the
ovirtmgmt switch OR the internal switch as an option. The drop-down is
empy as if I don't have any vnic-profiles.


openvswitch clusters are limited to ovn networks.
You can create one like described in
https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/admin-guide/chap-External_Providers.html#connecting-an-ovn-network-to-a-physical-network
