I don't think that splitting off traffic destined for 127.0.0.1 onto a separate
transport is much work, in fact generally a good idea anyway, see for example
the "scan" transport in:
http://www.postfix.org/FILTER_README.html#advanced_filter
With separate transports, one can have "-o smtp_bind_address=127.0.0.1" and the
stock "smtp" and "relay" transports can have "-o smtp_bind_address=192.0.2.1"
(or whatever you have for an external address). Seems pretty light-weight to
me, but you call of course for your systems...
