In general, is this work a waste of time or am I hitting something here?


Yes you're hitting the right spot :)

This is a planned feature.  We just need to fix the bundle structure
so that they live in the flow cache instead of the policy to make this
workable.

Agreed. I had a look at putting the bundles in the flow cache, it seems
to me this needs the xfrm resolution first since resolving the bundle
would be done in flow cache resolver and we can't sleep in there.
Once that's done it looks like a simple task.
