At least in Xastir (the only code I've examined) the system knows what
port something came in on. The client could be modified to send out the
interface it heard the packet on with preference to a direct internet
connection. If it doesn't get an ACK after X (X=1,2,3???) tries then it
would flip to RF if it had heard the destination station there...

I prefer to keep the backbone servers (no matter the tier) as dumb as
