Thank you for using Ubuntu and reporting a bug. The CLI command is meant to simplify adding rules by grouping like concepts together. For example "ufw allow in log-all Samba" will create several netfilter rules to handle the multiple ports for Samba as well as the additional logging rules, but they are all related to the same rule. By adding a "both" directive, the resulting netfilter rules would not be conceptually related. It would also complicate things when routing rules (FORWARD chain) land. Marking as "Won't Fix".
