I see, we could have people suddenly falling all over themselves for
quite a while finding all the side effects.

you needed to do something to identify each (V)IP can was covered by the fwmark
rules and arrange for those packets to be delivered locally. I thought it
was a kludge to write two sets of rules, one for ipvs and another
for local delivery. I thought you should be able to do something like saying
"deliver locally all packets with fwmark==1"
