'track' is hard to implement correctly because of RELATED traffic.

E.g. 'tcp dport 22 track' won't work correctly because icmp pmtu
won't be handled.

I'd suggest to try a conditional nf_ct_reset that keeps the conntrack
entry if its in another zone.

I can't think of another solution at the moment, the existing behaviour
of resetting conntrack entry for postrouting/output is too old,
otherwise the better solution IMO would be to keep that entry around on
egress if a NAT rewrite has been done. This would avoid the 'double snat'
problem that the 'reset on ingress' tries to solve.
