But please give us a reason why you believe that the configuration
of "your solution" would be easier. Yes, it's somewhat more
complicated than starting setup.exe and just click a "Next" button
if it's meant to be really secure.

Therefore it might be more promising if you just sit down and
implement an IPSec client for Windows fulfilling your requirements
and contribute X.509 cert based authentication to FreeS/WAN than
asking here for a new VPN project from scratch.

Well, then go for it.
I don't want to bother you but at this point I doubt that you have
enough knowledge of designing secure crypto protocols and practical
experience with current crypto implementations. It's up to you to
prove the opposite by presenting a concrete design paper and go
through the discussion about it.
Ciao, Michael.
