Not quite so easy - Shorewall runs ip[6]tables many places in the code,
most notably in detecting capabilities (but also in the shell
libraries). While iptables-restore-translate could be used in the
generated script to translate /var/lib/shorewall[6]/.ip[6]tables-input,
it's not really feasible in all of the other places where ip[6]tables is
run.
