What?!

*Checks documentation* But the docs don't mention it. Do they?

*Checks source code* Oooooooooo, but there it is in sub->radius_parser ...

Looks like I have some work to do!  Would it be bad form to ask for a radius 
example?  ... You know, if it specifically mentioned the Called-Station-Id 
attribute, that would be pretty freaking awesome ... just saying ...

But the radius request has been exposed in 4.4 :-)

Greetings Developer Gurus:

I approach the Throne of The Developers with a humble idea, perhaps it is even 
a good one : )

I love the new vlan filter feature, however I do no think I can make use of it 
quite yet.  There is still one data structure that this feature seemingly does 
not have access to that keeps me from using it (unless I am quite missing 
something).

If we could expose the information inside the RADIUS request to the vlan filter 
then I could finally remove the custom code from my deployment and make my 
upgrade process much simpler as well as alleviate a lot of the fear I have with 
moving to different versions of PF.

There is A LOT of information in the RADIUS request and combining that info 
with the flexibility the vlan filter gives us would make PF almost completely 
runtime programmable (with respect to vlans at least).

For my environment specifically, I have some custom code that reads the
Called-Station-ID from my RADIUS request and modifies the returned vlan based 
on that attribute.  If the vlan filter could see the information in the RADIUS 
request I could just write a simple filter for that info and not have to worry 
about the maintainability of custom code in future versions of PF.

I hope what I am trying to say is understandable, its been a crazy day, if I 
failed to explain properly please let me know.
