I'm not sure if this is necessary. If a user tag his pakets via
pf.conf there is no need, so why should it be diffrent via
socketoption. However, should be there a reasson, I would recommend to
do this with kernel-tags ("KERNEL_"), or to mention a recommendation
for setting tags via setsockopt with (for example "APP_").
If I'm wrong with my thoughts, its not to hard to change that. :)
