Hi Tom & others,

I've been contemplating the logging tips i recommend to people to give
them maximum information in their log messages
(http://linuxman.wikispaces.com/PPPPPPS), and i wonder whether it would
be possible to do this automatically now that shorewall-perl is with us.

I was writing some configs for one of my clients and started thinking
about how i could make their policies easier to understand.  I came up
with a perl hack that was fairly trivial, and after looking at
Policy.pm, it seems to me that we could add a fairly simple config item
(i was thinking to call it "EXPAND_POLICIES") that would jump in
somewhere near the IMPLICIT_CONTINUE handling and simply add a policy
for xxx2yyy that matched the xxx2all policy (for each of the other zones).

Would you be open to a patch for this?  Before the 4.0.0 release?
Pretty please?  :-)
