The main goal of BSDRP is not firewalling but routing. If you are looking for a firewall don't use BSDRP but use
m0n0wall or
pfSense.
BSDRP doesn't have a Web
GUI: It's to be configured from a CLI only (like Cisco/Juniper).
BSDRP is not intended for home use, but for compagny use (small
ISP for example).
All features not related to routing will not be added into the base of BSDRP.
But if some contributer add package support to BSDRP, why not permit to add a FreeBSD package into BSDRP.
No forum planned: The mailing-list permit to use only one “media” for communication.
