On the plus side, no kqemu means that VMs have better segregation than with kqemu or vmware. Works really nicely for testing things (serial console and -nographic is the way forward there...) but fairly heavy on resources. > I can do most of what I want to do with the sysjail as it is now, but > being have to "route" stuff to the jail would be a big bonus. > > Do you know if this is possible with FreeBSD jail? No, I think you'd want each jail to have a separate routing table and virtual interfaces for what you're trying to do. FreeBSD jail and sysjail are chroot-plus-restrictions, they don't do virtualisation. (If that's even a word). Dragonfly's vkernel(7) probably comes closest to what you're looking for (unless you want to look at something like Xen)...
