Yes, this is the case.
But have no time to install it again and again to identify the root
cause :(

Can't see the networking stuff.
The most important is (at least for me) the actual NetVM used by a Qube.

the default "self defending rules" are Iptables based, the VM traffic
forwarding rules are nftables based.

Custom firewall scripts now have to handle both.
My opinion that there is no real need for nftables until it can really
replace iptables. We are using just a really few rules here and the VM
based chains achievable by iptables too.

BTW:
I plan to continue the L7 filtering thing I started to play with. Can
you point the related documentation - if any - or at least the VM side
code processing the Qubes firewall rules please?

:)
It should be decided by the user, by selecting default policy.
IMHO Qubes should not try to override the user decisions.

Nope, I see the qubes backround. :)

But still feels like a bare naked login screen.
IMHO this should be just as important as the Qubes boot (splash) screen.
