No need to apologize, the link you sent had all the info I needed.  My
problem was getting tunnel-visioned into the multicast portion and not
thinking about the general network interface metrics.

Split tunneling is enabled already.  The bug(s) on Juniper's side are that
it installs a multicast route even though the client is told not to tunnel
multicast over the VPN link, and I believe that the interface speed is
reported at anywhere between 300Mbps and 2Gbps, which is probably why it
gets assigned a metric of 10.  So they would need to fix both of those
problems.

Thanks again for your help!  Thanks also to the other people who sent me
similar info off-list.
