In gluon I have just raised a PR [1] to run babel over a wireguard 
tunnel. The use case is to hold a Freifunk mesh together to allow 
software distribution. Even on low-end hardware (tl-wr841) the tunnel is 
fast enough - I measured 40Mbit - for most use cases.
This is possible using fastd as well, although with ~12-15 Mbit it is 
considerably slower.
