Firewalld offers it as a tool, so I would like to investigate to
determine if it is the best solution to the job. It would be good to
have a comparison against raw iptables or pf for example.

Also, there is nothing wrong with fedora as a router - It's a little bit
to setup, but works well. It means that I can have OS consistency inside
my household. (aka, Yes, I do have a fedora router)
