woops ... almost forgot, OpenBSD introduced interface cloning lately so t=
his=20
issue might come up there as well.

Is it possible that we see a work-around for not-yet created interfaces i=
n=20
OpenBSD, anytime - soon?

I didn't think about this to the end ... but it would not hurt (too much)=
 to=20
have rules for non-existent interfaces. As long as they are not used in=20
route-to context that is.

Comments? (CC'ed to the "real" pf list)						=09
