Cong,
I think it is better to have all these "tunneling" activities
as a separate action each. It is cleaner from a usability perspective.
[e.g. it is not hard to express nat action with pedit action or take
checksum out of nat since we have a csum action), but makes sense to
have it separate)].

cheers,
jamal
