The userspace libvirt (qemu:///session) cannot add interfaces to a bridge device.

This won't get fixed unless virt-manager provides a helper script to run something like "sudo brcrtl addif br0 tap0".
Or just put "You need root privileges to use bridged interfaces with virt-manager" into the documentation and be done with it.
