The most pressing need, at least for the time being, is 'rules' and 
'blrules'. Later on, 'masq' and probably 'conntrack'. The last bit 
(which currently is in my 'nice-to-have' list) is the whole range of 
traffic-shaping, but that is way off (we are talking probably a couple 
of months).

I need to take advantage of the state and chain auto-naming in 
shorewall. In other words, to let shorewall determine which chain (and 
in which state since that can be specified in 'rules' and 'blrules') to 
place this inline statement in and for me to just write it out. Again 
though, I am not really bothered if I don't have any 
optimisation/error-checking as such - if there is a screw-up in that 
inline statement, I am going to accept that. Is this doable?
