Subject:   carp + carpdev option?

Greetings!

It seems that this question has been asked several times before ...
It looks like there is no carpdev option in 7.x :-(

Having this options should bring several advantages:
- One would only have to use a single public IP address (the carp interface),
   and would be able to configure the physical parent interface with a private
   IP address for management purposes only.

- One would not have to fiddle around with application configuration, like
   telling Squid to use the IP address of the carp interface as sender IP
   (and not the IP of the parent interface ...)

Is there any hope this option gets ported to FreeBSD? Maybe in 8.x?

TIA,
Ferdinand Goldmann
