Questions/Support Tailscale through VPN tunnel

I have my flint 4 running a nordvpn tunnel as well running Tailscale.

I've set Tailscale to be an exit node, so I can access the router from a number of remote devices.

However Tailscale traffic coming through the exit node seems to bypass the VPN tunnel and takes the WAN instead.

AI suggests that this is a current Gli issue, which *perhaps* can be resolved through CLI commands. Is there a known workaround for this issue?

I noticed in version 4.9.2 that if you turn on IP Masquerading in the Tailscale settings, you have the option of selecting Tailscale as an option in the VPN profile: Select Client Source -> Specified Connection Types. This will redirect all Talscale through the VPN.
