Actually maybe this can still be spoofed, e.g. perhaps someone can
jump into someone else's existing TCP connection on the local machine
through the TAP interface.  It might be ok, but you or some TCP wizard
better first think about it carefully.  I'm not expert enough about
socket programming to know.  You'd think there's a solution.
