The multicast destination address is known, so that should work. Would
also serve as a kind of ACL, I guess.

Well, I would certainly limit it to multicast addresses. But other than
that it sounds like an excellent idea.

Can wireguard handle routed traffic to an endpoint. I.e. if endpoint A
has address 10.0.0.1/32 and endpoint B has a route 'ip route add
10.10.10.1/24 via 10.0.0.1 dev wg0', would the traffic go where it's
supposed to?
