If you can see the complete decapsulated transaction (through enc0) you can 
use tagging there to mark packets out of the tunnel and pass on that tag 
later on.

I have to admit that I do very few IPSEC/vnp stuff right now so I'm not up to 
speed on all aspects of FILTERGIF etc.  Hopefully somebody else can fill in 
some more detail?
