I think there should be an explicit way to enable the "kernel default mode", i.e. the parser for this one option should consider a special value "kernel" or so to explicitly ask for the kernel default. I'd still prefer if we'd default to ip forwarding off, rather than ip forwarding as kernel default, for security reasons.
