I may be revealing the true abysses of my ignorance here, but would not
a reasonable NAT combined with something like 

pass inet proto tcp from $localnet to $Windows_RDServer port 3389 keep state

'just work'? Does the server need to start connections which are not taken care
of by the state information back to the clients?
