+====== Routing all Traffic through OpenVPN ======
+TL;DR: old trick, set a lower interface metric for the OpenVPN interface than the default gateway.
+Since there does not seem to be an official straightforward answer to route all traffic through OpenVPN "the OpenWrt way"™ the following should be easy to accomplish via the interface:
+  * ensure that the OpenVPN server (or client configuration file) contains ''redirect-gateway def1'',
+  * using the OpenWrt interface: ''Network'' -> ''Interfaces'' and for each WAN interface, click ''Edit'' and then go to ''Advanced Settings'' and set the ''Interface Metric'' to a given value (ie: ''10''),
+  * using the OpenWrt interface: ''Network'' -> ''Interfaces'' open up the OpenVPN interface, go to ''Advanced Settings'' and set the ''Interface Metric'' to a value lower than all WAN interfaces from the previous step (ie: ''1'').
+OpenWrt does not do this automatically even if ''redirect-gateway def1'' is pushed by the server.
