Ok, thanks to the kind and insightful off-list help of Jerry Vonau, I managed 
to solve the problem.
The problem basically was that I had a route_rule forcing the "generic" traffic 
(aka the one not directed to my production site) to ISP1, which was as a side 
effect making impossible to establish any kind of connection between ISP2 and 
the rest of the world... because every request arriving to the firewall through 
ISP2 was answered through the ISP1 route... you see it :)
The solution was to modify the masq configuration and get rid of the 
route_rules forcing the generic traffic.
Now I have balanced generic traffic between ISP1 and ISP2 (I'll fine tune it 
with 
traffing shaping) and the rest of the world can see my ISP2 public address (and 
my prod site can see ISP1 public IP as well).

Thank again to jerry for his great help and to the Shorewall devs in general 
for this great piece of software!
