At this time as I know, this functionality is not available in pf41 that 
is and has been a part of FreeBSD for quite some time and believe it still 
is a part of -CURRENT.

There has been some work on getting pf up-to-date as of pf45 where there 
is a patch that is available for -CURRENT only but I am not aware as if it 
supports the functionality you desire.

If that is something you are interested in and know is a part of pf45, 
then you are welcome to upgrade to -CURRENT and apply that patchset if 
needs be to help test while achieving your objectives.

Some of the work has been done here:
http://svn.freebsd.org/base/user/eri/pf45/head/

And there are various other messages on the lists that you are welcome to 
search for if interested.


Good Luck.
