Right,
that is still on open point on my ToDo. I'd like to automate that
if possible but did not have a good idea how to do that.
When a packet comes from the same interface, add a cost it.
Thats a bit too brief for me. Would you mind being more verbose ? :-)
Let's say a packet comes from node A interface ath0 of node B, and
there is a route on node B for the packet to go to node C, route which
use the same interface ath0. In this case, you might want to add a
cost to hop over the same wireless interface.
I say "wireless" in this case because "wired" is usually full duplex
and not half duplex. Half duplex makes the situation worse for the
reasons I explained here:

Hopping over the same radio means:
* dividing the bandwidth by two at each hop and
* choosing the worst radio link of your two neighboors
