Does it support media and mediaopt arguments? These are very commonly used. I also rely on this, for what it's worth:
openvpn_enable="yes" openvpn_configfile="/conf/ME/openvpn/openvpn.conf" openvpn_dir="/conf/ME/openvpn" openvpn_if="tap" cloned_interfaces="bridge0" ifconfig_bridge0="addm em1 up"
Setting media options and the like via _aliasesX variables makes no sense and you don't appear to be doing it so I'm confused by your question. The ifconfig_iface_aliasX syntax exists to add IPv4 addresses to an interface. New ipv4_addrs_iface variable is an attempt to replace that and nothing more.
Ah, now I understand. I was reading it as "ipv4_addrs_<iface> would replace ifconfig_<iface> altogether", which was obviously incorrect on my part.
Thanks for clearing up my confusion... :-)
