Or your missing something, I think is the correct statement.

Setup a load balancer entry with an active node and a failover node.
Use that entry as your gateway in your rules.  It's really not rocket
science.  This feature has worked flawlessly since I implemented it
over 3 years ago, with only usability tweaks having been made to it
since commit (not counting the major feature changes to it in 2.0).  I
no longer need the feature having no desire to continue maintaining
payment for multiple WAN connections, but it's used by numerous other
devs on a daily basis and lots of users.  If it were truly "broken" we
would have heard about it not only after releases, but during release
candidates and betas which are released entirely so our userbase can
help perform our quality assurance and make sure that releases are
solid.
