Not at the moment.  I put out a project idea to integrate pf with netgraph 
some while ago (as I don't have time to code it myself).  There were two 
applications for the Google Summer of Code program to implement this, but 
neither were selected.  However, another student who did apply for SoC as 
well and was (slightly) outranked with his original proposal is now 
pursueing this idea.  He plans to work within similar bounds as the other 
SoC-students.

To sum this up, stay tuned from something to happen.  Ideas, feedback and 
feature requests are certainly welcome.
