It's actually incompatible with any load balancer to be created that has
VIP=<any LRP IP>.  Same for NATs.

What if we combine it with a filter like Vladislav suggested?  But not
match on any IPs explicitly.  Then the user could just configure
multiple IPs (e.g., IP1, IP2) on the LRP and decide which of them should
be redirected by adding a filter on "ip.dest == IP2" (for example).

That would allow you to:
a. redirect all traffic (no filter or filter == "1")
b. redirect traffic for select IPs (filter == "ip.dest == X")
c. do more complex things (responsibility of the user if things break?)

What do you think?
