The corporate project folks have a different standard of bugs acceptability--right around 0 for functional apps, with cosmetics minimized or hidden. In the mean time you do have SNF with the 2.2 kernel which does not offer stateful firewalling but otherwise is quite good. Just remember to take away the keyboard and monitor from the firewall box and make changes from the local LAN with a browser. Setting up the usual config files on SNF doesn't work because they are reloaded from other config files... Lots of experts tripped on that one.
