Thanks everybody. It looks simpler than I thought.

Create a gateway load balancer with just that WAN connection in it. Then you 
can use LAN rules to direct traffic to it by IP address or traffic type.

Either or both.

Host IP as in LAN or Internet host, or both?

Yeah, that would be manually adding gateway to host.

You can configure it by host IP (range) and/or by traffic type. Different
gateway is not very neat solution and to be honest I do not know how would
you configure that.
