Well... actually that is the way to do it (if I understand your question
fully).  You publish a second arp resolving an IP to the MAC address of your
public FW nic and hide your networks behind that with hide mode NAT.  You
then drop any attempts to connect to that address.  It's documented
step-by-step at phoneboy's site.
