Should not be too difficult to implement.

A unique IP for each jail is required in any case.

Nope. Just use aliases in rc.conf for the one NIC. For example, if I 
have a NIC fxp0, on a host with two jails:

ifconfig_fxp0="inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_fxp0_alias0="inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.255"
ifconfig_fxp0_alias1="inet 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.255"

Note the alias masks are all ones -- that's not a typo.
