Well...

Probably. You're adding a layer of complexity to the system which I
would try to avoid, personally.

I think we've already demonstrated that using netfilter to SNAT the
outgoing packets is a no-go. If you have another interface on the
directors then DR becomes rather simpler - and if you have multiple
client networks, you can always use the Linux VLAN module to segregate
them.
