If both virtual links are supported by the same physical link, nothing will improve.

That being said, some people used VLAN to provide end-to-end links, across one or several common 
switches.

       +-eth0-----vlan-100-----eth0-+
       |                            |
bond0-+                            +-bond0
       |                            |
       +-eth1-----vlan-200-----eth1-+
