Given a setup where there are multiple NIC's (some of them being virtual eth1:1, etc and others being real) and if they all have the same default gw can a preference be made by a network-application such as the browser of selecting to use a one NIC over another.
The idea here is that I should be able to select the source IP which should be used by the network-application.
You can in most cases accomplish this with a little LD_PRELOAD hackery, to modify the socket calls to always bind() to the desired address when the application tries to call connect().
Much in the same way that the runsocks wrapper intercepts network calls of dynamically linked applications and redirects them to SOCKS.
