Interesting.  I think this would work when we add support for multiple
concurrent VPN connections.  This has been on the roadmap since forever
but there's been a lack of time to do it.  It's not too hard since most
of the work is already done, but it would require a bit of refactoring
for the VPN service daemons themselves.

This requires support in vpnc, and AFAIK it's not on their roadmap yet.
Unfortunately :(
