2.2 and earlier colored the field/text box background red if it would 
take an alias, as I recall.  Looks like that was removed with the new GUI in 
2.3?  If you start typing it will "autocomplete" with matching aliases.  
Agreed, the Firewall/Aliases/Edit page should probably say that we can type in 
an alias.

I tend to use names like "DeveloperHosts" and "WebserverPorts" where the
last part describes what it is. But the GUI makes it easy for you and only
presents what's sensible for auto-fill in each place you can use one.

For curiosity how do you manage the aliases naming ?  Do you have some sort
on naming convention depending of the aliases is an IP/Host/Network and or
if it's and aliase of aliases ?

No I don't believe so. It probably makes more sense to create a firewall
rule for each office network.
