ACCEPT *is* terminating, but you need to keep in mind how Netfilter
processes packets (http://www.shorewall.org/NetfilterOverview.html).

REDIRECT and DNAT occur in the PREROUTING chain of the nat table,
while ACCEPT occurs in the INPUT, OUTPUT and FORWARD chains of the
filter table. As a consequence, even though a REDIRECT or DNAT rule
follows an ACCEPT rule in your rules file, the nat PREROUTING rule
will *always* be processed before the ACCEPT rule.
