I like this concept. This + the patch i posted should resolve the problem
of getting multiple VRIDs on a single interface.
[Although you could do it in a lot less code, maybe 50%, using
some of the tc filter extensions i am working on; also a lot less code
than arptables]

I guess there is more than one VRRP implementation on Linux; the one i
played with is from some crazy Frenchman named Jerome Ettiene;->
With two conecpts being addressed i.e patch like that you have +
the patch i posted i dont see any orther reason VRRP to be hindered.
