Casper refers to this series (the first of the VCAP related series) that was merged on Oct 24th:

The chain ids are referring to the VCAP instances and their lookups.  There are some more details
about this in the series I referred to above.

The short version is that this allows you to select where in the frame processing flow your rule
will be inserted (using ingress or egress and the chain id).

I have not yet added the goto action, but one use of that is to chain a filter from one VCAP
instance/lookup to another.

The goto action will be added in a soon-to-come series.  I just wanted to avoid a series getting too
large, but on the other hand each of them should provide functionality that you can use in practice.
