Hey, For the last few days I tried to DNAT a port on localhost to a local VM living inside a virtual bridge network. I got it working using the external IP with a OUTPUT rule in the NAT table, as it can't be done via PREROUTING: `iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 8080 -d <MY_IP> -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.2:80` which allows me to `curl <MY_IP>:8080`. I'd expect that it `curl localhost:8080` would work with something like this: `iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -o lo --dport 8080 -d localhost -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.2:80` but this just results in packages getting stuck. After reading a lot I found [1] which tries to define it as a feature to conform the RFCs 5735/1700/1812. Is this really the only reason or is it technically impossible due to sth like the limitations of `lo` since it is not a real device? I feel way to much of a novice to navigate the kernel source.
