[c-nsp] VRF Design Question

Hi folks.

My Setup:

  : VPDN-DIAL-USER
  :
[c7200]  r1
  | some off. IP
  |
  |
(...INET...)
  |
  |
  | some off. IP
[c2600]  r2
  | RFC1918 IP / CUSTOMERS LAN
  |
 ...

   My goal is to establish a kind of VPN between some dial users (not 
all) and a remote branch in a different location. I imagine something 
like this:

o GRE Tunnel0 between r1/r2
o User1 dials in on r1
  -> creating Virtual-Interface-1 (Vi1) on r1 for User1 via AAA/RADIUS
o if User1 belongs to a certain customer or group then route all traffic 
from Vi1 towards Tunnel0 to r2 - otherwise give him normal/direct 
Internet access

   Furthermore Tunnel0 and the mentioned certain Vi's should also be 
protected from all other traffic.

   I have no practical experience with VRF's at this time but all the 
doc's I've read so far tells me implementing a VRF setup is the right 
way to accomplish the stuff I want. The other option is using only 
common PBR and ACL's but I'm afraid that this won't scale and is some 
kind of nasty too.

Any recommendations are welcome.
