Why did you need to adjust your firewall settings?
DLNA transcoding server called BubbleUPNP needed internet access.
Are you sure that
would still be required given the permissive default configuration in
F21?
No idea. I'm not running f21, but the port numbers were above 1024 so my
guess is yes.

I'll take that one step further: to whatever extent we identify firewall
configuration to be necessary -- hopefully not at all -- we need to get
that configuration into System Settings.
I agree completely but System Settings are verboten save for blessed
configuration tools. We also need a way to adjust fonts without tweak tool,
but I thought that too was a no-go.
