Actually, you can do what I did and to install bind 9 and set up a split DNS.
This allows you to return different addresses based on the source address.
This would mean your DNS could return 192.168.0.1 for www.foo.com whereas for
external queries, it would return the WAN address.  It works for me...

The minor downside is that all the internal hosts would have to use your DNS.
If your DNS failed and they resolved from an external nameserver, they'd get
the WAN address instead of the LAN address. Clear as mud?
