Blocking all outgoing traffic except port 80 to a specific host

[Simon Lundmark]

Hello!

I just installed Fedora 18 and got a nice surprise when I found out
about FirewallD! It seems really useful for me (because I'm not
directly an iptables rock star). But I did not find information on the
wiki https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FirewallD about my specific use
case:

I would like to block all outgoing traffic from the computer, except
for port 80 to one specific host (say 192.168.0.17).

I come from an Ubuntu background, and this blogpost describes how I
would do something similar using UFW
http://mondotech.blogspot.se/2010/11/ufw-block-outgoing-traffic.html:
# ufw default deny outgoing
# ufw allow out to 8.8.8.8 port 53

How would I do something similar using FirewallD?

Best regards
Simon Lundmark

I am sorry, but limiting outgoing traffic is not possible with firewalld 
in a simple way at the moment.

I am working on a rich language and I will have a look how and if this 
could get integrated easily.
