Interesting but I doubt whether you really want to route /all/ your network traffic through Tor.

As soon as some packet that reaches the internet (through an exit node) that includes some identity information your Tor connection is no longer private. Routing all your traffic via Tor, increases the chance this will happen.

Also if many people use Tor for all their traffic, this will become a scalability problem for Tor (lack of exit nodes).

I would assume if you're going this far you're likely running this module under a Linux VM so only specifics go through Tor.
If you do that then you may as well just use two VMs - Tor router and client - and that's basically Whonix.
