You do not have to nat everything, and you *can* tag on nat, then
filter on the tags. Between the two, you should be able to achieve
the level of control you need.
I always found it easiest to tag on the inbound to the firewall side
of whatever's inititating the connection. I haven't actually
thought about why in a long time but, offhand, I can't think
of another good strategy when working with tags. I guess I'm
assuming a "block everything" default.
