Just to feed the poll:
Copy'n'pasting relevant lines from 'cat ~/vm-launches.txt'

Reason:
I very much dislike utilizing if_bridge(4), instead would prefere
vale(4), but that's reproducibly locking up in real world setups.
So my choice is ng_bridge(4), which isn't covered by any byhve(4) helper
project afaik.
2nd reason:
People are working on native config file support.  There's
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D2448 and https://reviews.freebsd.org/D2505
e.g., which seems desireable to me and I liked it very much at the time
of evaluating.
Unfortunately, neither time nor skills allow me to seriously
contribute.  But that's the way to go imho, so I dropped hacking
vm-bhyve/chyves in favour of coming up with small, _bhyve.conf
compatible_ shell parser.  Unfortunately, even for that, I couldn't find
any time.

So still 'cat ~/vm-launches.txt', where my MAC database resides ;-)
