Since no-one else has replied... I can't see any reason why it shouldn't work with a routed address (provided of course that your router/firewall passes traffic on the correct TCP ports) since it's just sending IP packets- it doesn't matter how they make the trip, just that they do. Performance might be questionable depending on the speed of the link. The danger of split brain would be severe- you'd need good fencing, as everyone always says! Personally I prefer to have the DR site have a regular snapshot of the data rather than a live copy in case of corrupted data being written to all your copies and then having to recover from backup, but it depends entirely on your application.
