Adding WAN Port to Switch (use as a normal LAN port)

In case the WRT is used as an access point within a LAN, the WAN port can easily be configured as a normal switched port:
1.)

Under "Setup" -> "Basic Setup"
Set "Internet Setup" to "Disabled"


2.)

Under "Setup" -> "VLANs"
- Select "LAN" under "Assigned to bridge" for VLAN 1 * This will set the WAN port (vlan1) is part of the LAN bridge (br0). - Save your settings.


3.)

The VLAN setting should show something like:
             |       Port        |   Assigned
     VLAN    |-------------------|   to bridge
             | W | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
    --------------------------------------------
       0     |   | x | x | x | x |     LAN
    --------------------------------------------
       1     | x |   |   |   |   |     LAN
    --------------------------------------------
       2     |   |   |   |   |   |     None
    --------------------------------------------
      ...
    --------------------------------------------
     Tagged  |   |   |   |   |   |
    ------------------------------


It would be nice to be able to assign different networks to each of the ports.. Is there any work done in this direction?
