But I don't really know anything about DSA - I simply pieced the article together from a few forum posts. And I never received any direct feedback or saw any updates to the wiki page.

I don't see much content to document DSA. All DSA does is creating a
network interface for each switch port. What I think should be properly
documented is the Bridge VLAN filtering feature. I have made some
efforts to do that on my playground here:

I know I was supposed to deliver much more, much earlier. I still have a
huge list of things to do on LuCI, UCI and OpenWrt Wiki, forcefully
pushed down to the bottom of my task list.
