This is not true. You can look for next IP, that is in Internet. We use IPs of microsoft or google. What you can do is to have 2 global variables and update this variables with IPs of websites like google.es or google.com or whatever... Set variable (Resolve(IP)) bla bla..
Im in the bottom of greetings of this wiki page ; ) Believe me, this is PERFECT for 2 gateways at same speed. We did a config for 3 and 4 gateways but its very hard.. Vecause you have to make 2^n rules (n are the gateways). We have this config running in about 60 customers. The only problem you will have is to use "bad IPs" for monitoring, but you can fix it changing the Host1 and Host2 IPs or make it dynamic with a simple script.
