I think it does - it doesn't answer the question posed, but might solve
the underlying problem ("ensure connectivity even if there is overlap
in the RFC networks on client and server side"), *without* knowing the
local connectivity details.

It might be possible to actually hack together something with a wrapper
script around openvpn that does "--setenv UV_MY_NETWORK 1.2.3.0/24",
because "UV_" env variables are sent as push-peer-info to the server.

OTOH, that will require nontrivial amounts of hackery depending on the
way openvpn is started on the clients.
