Best option I see here is a dup-to packets to an interface with IDS
listening and give it the ability to add IP addresses to a blacklist and
flush all states associated with them.

PF is a kernel space item, and you want to keep this as simple as possible
to minimize bugs. Leave complex stuff like intrusion detection to the
userland where it can do less harm.
