Another idea Thomas and I tossed around was to have some kind of way for the rule insertion to indicate that the flush should be deferred and I kind of prefer that explicitness. By default it's better the flush immediately, because the old behavior is totally unexpected. "I insert a rule and it dosn't show up?", nobody expects that. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
