Package: iptables-persistent
Version: 0.5.6
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

It would be nice if all *tables could be persisted, namely arptables and 
ebtables, that I know of.

I suspect it would be pretty easy and straightforward to integrate these as 
well, however, iptables may not be a good name for this package anymore. Could 
be firewall-persistent, with an /etc/firewall directory and so on. Makes 
perfect sense to me.

Another question is: to depend or not to depend? I think you could just suggest 
having all those *tables installed, and see at runtime which are actually 
there. For example I want to have arptables but not ebtables.

Thanks in advance for considering this.
