using the same gateway for both wans won't work as you can't specify rules for 
this I think. the rules are applied to a gateway and with both gateways the 
same... :-/
you might have to come up with a workaround like having a nated router in front 
of one connection to use this as gateway on one wan and put the pfsense in the 
dmz of this router.

Cool, that helps.

Any idea whether or not having the same (DHCP-assigned) "default" 
gateway IP on multiple WAN interfaces will cause a problem?  In other 
words, my reading so far suggests that routing is done based on the 
destination gateway, not the interface, although that may not be 
entirely correct.

Sorry if it's a dumb question, I'm just trying to get things planned out 
before I rewire to handle the net configuration -- Unfortunately my 
managed switch can't cope with the same MAC address on multiple physical 
ports even if it's different VLANs, so this change requires physical 
rewiring, I can't just reconfigure my switch :(
