you will have problems with sites that keep track
of IP addressess for session validation.  Some sites will end the
session if they receive a request from a different IP than the one that
initiated the browsing.  This occurs mainly in banks and other ssl
connections.  Here, I use a iptables mangle rule to mark tcp/443 packets
and a ip rule to direct marked packets to one fixed link.
