Hey Pablo,

Well, the code itself isn't really about doing content
processing/filtering in kernel-space, but implementing a rule-based
policy engine (think of something like iptables with best-match
evaluation) that effectively makes decisions about which user-space
proxies, if any, are used for processing a connection.

So at the moment I think that while nfgrep matching could be integrated
into the code and would provide some really nice additional features, it
wouldn't be a replacement for the stuff we're doing.

nfgrep's really cool, though, thanks for your work Pablo!
