I'm presently seeking recommendations for a consumer grade home router that will work as both a vpn client and vpn server for PPTP, L2TP, OpenVPN, and IPSEC protocols. support for plain GRE would be useful as well. the router should be easy to configure with a fill in the boxes and check marks type web interface. Ideally an unlimited number of VPN tunnels would be supported along with support for RIP and OSPF. what does this list know of that comes at least close to this?

Consider Ubiquity Edgerouter Lite. Dont know exactly what can be done via web config but defintely capable of what you are looking for via easy CLI config.

Any Mikrotik router is capable of those functions, except IPIP point to multipoint capabilities needed for our IPIP mesh (IPIP PtP is supported). The number of supported VPNs depends on the license level: 200 for L4, 500 for L5 and unlimited for L6. If additional features are needed, there is support for a metarouter (virtual machine) on single core routers, able to run OpenWRT - this would allow implementation of our IPIP PtMP mesh functions. Prices start from 40$.

I would say MikroTik -- pro-features/consumer price.

More specifically, get one of these: http://routerboard.com/RB2011UiAS-2HnD-IN
This is what I'm running at home. I use PPTP VPN server so I can dial in to my network, and PPTP VPN client to link into my work network (I telecommute). It can do OpenVPN, but not with certificates. Biggest downside is no built-in 5 GHz AP, but having this separate allowed for optimal placement of my 5 GHz AP in a more central location, not the networking closet. It has one PoE output to power the 5 GHz AP (or whatever else you might want to power).
