Determining the pid/subj of a packet is notoriously
difficult/impossible in netfilter so let's drop that; with proper
policy/rules you should be able to match proto/port with a given
process so this shouldn't be that critical.  The source/destination
addresses and proto/port (assuming IP) should be easy enough.

All right, now that we've got the "must" items down, are their any
"should" items we want?
