So...other than the obvious visual difference, is this just a new way to manage firewall rules?  Or are there actual technical advantages to the new firewall rule interface?

Also, is there a way to remove the [old and busted] Rules menu option, after you've successfully migrated?

Thanks again,

I use them to group different rules together and can see them visually.

Hey that is a pretty cool usecase. I didnt think of using it this way with multiple categories in such a descriptive way. Nice :)
