the binding is somewhat related to this issue and I was looking for that
feature some time ago, too. While it is correlated and I would really
appreciate binding support, I am not sure whether the linked patch does
actually fix the problem I am seeing in multi homed devices.

As long as wireguard does not reply with the same IP address it was
contacted with, packets will get dropped on stateful firewalls, because
the returning packet does not match the state session database.

Best regards,

Nico
