Wow. Ugh.

I wrote the driver, Matthew, Dinh, and I all made mods.

I'll remove it.

I could change it to bridge-enable. Alternatively I could have two
booleans that are bridge-enable and bridge-disable as:

bridge-enable : boolean property should be defined if driver should
enable bridge at startup
bridge-disable : boolean property should be defined if driver should
disable bridge at startup
Default if neither bridge-enable or bridge-disable are specified is
driver will leave bridge in its current state.
