Comment:

 The focus of this task has changed somewhat. In fedora, we now use
 firewalld[1][2] as the default. Firewalld comes with a GUI also
 ('firewall-config' if launching from the commandline).

 This ticket should focus on a UX review of firewall-config, rather than
 the older system-config-firewall.

 mizmo did some designs[3] for the zones portion of the firewalld gui tool,
 which would also be worth a look at when undertaking this task.

 cheers,
 ryanlerch
