I'd completely agree with this. iptables very often looks like a write-once
firewall ruleset :-)

Have a look at AGT (http://sourceforge.net/projects/agt). It's a
configuration frontend to iptables, but with a syntax that's similar-ish to
ipf. I'm using it on one of the firewalls at work, and it works quite well.
However, I haven't been able to get it to port-forward - I still needed to
use proper iptables rules for that.
