I have finally tried this out on CURRENT. Everything works fine as expected:
ng_ksocket in divert mode reinjects packets back into the proper firewall
rule, netflow collects info about demasqueraded IPs... OK.

Here is my config:

netgraph:

        mkpeer tee dummy right2left
        name .:dummy divert_tee_in
        mkpeer divert_tee_in: echo right echo
        mkpeer divert_tee_in: ksocket left inet/raw/divert
        name divert_tee_in:left divert_sock_in
        msg divert_sock_in: bind inet/0.0.0.0:8669

        disconnect dummy

        mkpeer divert_tee_in: netflow left2right iface0
        name divert_tee_in:left2right netflow

        msg netflow: setdlt { iface=0 dlt=12 }
        msg netflow: setifindex { iface=0 index=6 }

        mkpeer netflow: ksocket export inet/dgram/udp
        msg netflow:export connect inet/127.0.0.1:4444

ipfw:

00200 divert 8668 ip from any to any in via ${nat_if}
00201 divert 8669 ip from any to any in via ${nat_if}
.... some other stuff
00600 divert 8668 ip from any to any out via ${nat_if}
