Yes, its mainly for that purpose, to assign proper gateways to networks/interfaces (which is a lot more easier @ Debian in /etc/network/interfaces)

We may even use FIB# 1 and 2 for these networks, and use FIB# 0 with other NIC as a default interface, posibilities are of course big, but I wanted to point posibility of having a gateway per network.
