My patch is useful only if you restrict addresses in the first place. In that
case there is only a limited number of craftable src addresses. Typically:

       wm0 [public side]: allow 10 IPv6 addresses
       wm1 [local side]:  allow everything

This seems to be a very specific and rare use case ...

Would a combination of global and a per interface limit handle most of
the cases without increased DoS risk?

Yes, probably. In fact, it would be a lot better if it was done in the
firewall directly.
