Last time I posted it there was some disagreement regarding when/how mangle was to be called. Maybe Harald has made up his mind now?
I have not had any reason to make any changes to CONNMARK since last posted I think (the last filemodification date is May 20). As you say it works very well for solving a family of complex routing problems, but I have not tested it heavily on later kernels. I would certainly not mind having it in patch-o-matic/extra if possible.
