Please file a bug: virt-manager has had bridge detection for years, so
something must be going wrong. In f13 we will use netcf for this, so
even bridge enumeration on remote hosts should work.
Additionally I recently made a change upstream to allow users to
manually enter a bridge name, since netcf isn't supported for all
distros yet.
