Same thing if you have two interfaces, eth0 & eth1 : IP conntrack tuples dont
include interface name/index
Indeed, but imagine what happens when eth0 is the LAN and eth1 is
the wild wild Internet.  Do you really want their packets to mix?
No, Abayadi needs firewall rules (or RPF), before entering conntrack.

Allowing spoofed packets to come from wild Internet would be...
interesting in many aspects.

And since some setups use several links to LAN, several links to
Internet, its user policy decisions.
Correct, users need to take care of this manually.
