Ah, you know - for some reason I wasn't trying to just edit that file
directly, but rather start the firewall, run some 'iptables ...', then
service iptables save.  That's what my current script does, and I like the
results.  But anway, yeah, that should work to just disable ssh.

I guess I'll file a bug on this, and see if I get a WONTFIX.
