AFAIK:
Being able to bind your default route to a dedicated interface would
help, but unfortunately IPsec implementation in m0n0wall does not use
such a special interface... (NOTE: you may have the same limitation with
other IPsec implementations, not only with racoon/m0n0wall)
In conclusion, only traffic destined to the remote LAN can be routed
through the tunnel.
