Fish, I don't think you understood the purpose of the OpenVPN tun/tap 
driver.. It provides somewhat the same functionality as the linux 
tun/tap driver.. No winpcap, no capture, no injection... it's a 
programatic driver that creates a virtual ethernet L2/IP L3 layer that 
can be used to connect to the OS IP stack or bridged. How it's used is 
slightly different from the linux version (especially different naming) 
but you basically send and receive frames through it. Also means you can 
multiple LCS/QETH interfaces on a host.

If you do that, windows, linux and mac (and whatnot) become pretty much 
unified.

I'm not saying it's a meanial task, I'm saying it's an avenue that needs 
to be investigated.
