wtf?  application gateways have to be written for each protocol, whereas
NATs do not (at least for those protocols that don't do referrals).

that makes for a huge deployment mess.  it also breaks apps when the end
points upgrade their protocols and the ALGs don't keep track.

(now if we're going to have NATs at all, I'm a big fan of having a
standard signaling/control protocol that should work for all NATs.  but
that's not the same as an application gateway)
