Just FYI, a shell script will be slower than iptables-save since the later only 
makes one call while the former makes one call per ipt command. 

I looked at shorewall and didn't know it had zones - that's cool (since I don't 
like xml that firewalld uses). I've now got a 2k line perl script that does 
almost everything we need but I'll take another look at shorewall (for ideas if 
nothing else).
