Mmh.. maybe swapping them should do the trick:

[...]
allow remote_ip "192.168.0.1"
allow from "2014-01-01"
allow any
[...]

if the user is internal, then the first row would match and the user would be 
authorized. Otherwise the second row would be applied, and if the time matches 
it would read the third row which would actually authorize the user.

This calls for a new feature. Maybe we can define a new parameter, say:

CFG_INTRANET_DEFINITION 

defined as a list of newtwork ranges.

Then we can extend webuser.collect_user_info to use this new config variable 
and set up a new key in user_info which could then be consumed in firerole 
rules...

Cheers!
