Just to add to David's comments
Source based routing which is in the Gateway Policies he was
referring to. Once you where in that section. You would have seen
it along with the sharing/load balancing david referred to.
Simply put - the source based routing will allow packets to return
via the same path they arrived.

Should either work or be rejected as a configuration error.
Multiple subnets on any interface (external included) will work fine.
Do note that traffic will follow your default route unless you have
something more specific (I seem to recall there being
loadsharing/gateway selector features that could let you select the
gateway for specificly matching traffic, added in..oh..3.7?).
What this means in your environment: If you have Router-A to ISP-A
and Router-B to ISP-B, and your default route is set to Router-A,
all of your traffic will be sent outbound through Router-A (and
hence ISP-A, unless Router-A is configured otherwise). This
includes return traffic (unless you have the expanded gateway
selector/load sharing turned on and available).
For any outbound connection not related to an inbound connection
that needs to use the new aliases, you'll want to use a Static Map
to map traffic from protected-IP X to external-IP X.
Does this make sense?
