That's correct.  By 'forward policy' I'll assume you mean 'routing
decision'.  You can use the MARK target in iptables along with the
'fwmark' in iproute2 to allow iptables to control routing decisions.

If you'd like some more help with this you can stop by #netfilter on OPN
or provide more details on what you're after.
