Actually one of my TODO items is to restructure software LRO so that we preserve the original packet headers while aggregating the packets. That would allow us to easily refragment them on output for forwarding. In other words LRO (at least the software variant) is not fundamentally incompatible with forwarding. I'd also like to encourage all hardware manufacturers considering LRO support to provide a way for us to access the original headers so that it doesn't have to be turned off for forwarding.
