Those different MARKs are used for policy-routing, load balancing,
firewall, traffic control, virtual server, user-group profiles etc. I
think eventually you may have to use it, warts and all, or find some
other way for integrating all those. :-) I will soon run out of bits, it
seems.

I've replaced that multipath rule for local packets with a single route,
and change it on failovers. No balancing for local traffic, but there
isn't much local traffic anyway.
