Is the existing behavior intentional or an oversight? I don't know when I
would want to use -Fall, but keep the old timeouts, and depend on that. I'd
guess most people using -Fall are keeping old timeout only by happen stance,
and not because they desire that.
In any case, if you're seeking input on the name, something like -Freset says
to me that it resets pf back to its initial state.
