Wait.

This changes the existing behaviour. I mean, this check rejects rules
using RETURN from base chains, that should still be there to mimic
ebtables behaviour. Why change this?

Please use the same error message the ebtables uses:

"Policy RETURN only allowed for user defined chains");

And explicitly check for RETURN instead. This is a compat tool, we
should spot the same errors than the original.
