Yes, I think in the long term rule generation really needs to be
separated completely from rule definition. Right now there's a lot of
implicit iptable rule generation inside pve-firewall, which makes it a
real pain.

Just to throw in another idea:
How about using something like shorewall (shorewall.net) to handle the
whole firewall generation code from a higher level. I'm using it for in
really complex setups for years and i am very happy with it. (I know
this won't solve the nftables problem right now).
