Many (most, even) of the services are already provided by either firewalld itself (e.g. vdsm, libvirt) or the 3rd party packages (e.g. gluster).

1. Do we want to support in some version X both iptables and firewalld, or<br>
is it ok to stop support for iptables and support only firewalld without<br>
overlap? If so, do we handle upgrades, and how?<br>
<br>
2. Do we want to support custom firewalld xml to be configured on the<br>
host by us? Or is it ok to only support choosing among existing services,<br>
which will need to be added to the host using other means (packaged by<br>
firewalld, packaged by 3rd parties, added manually by users)?<br>
<br>
3. Opposite of (2.): Do we want to support firewalld services that are<br>
added to the host using other means (see there)? Obviously we do, but:<br>
If we do, do we still want to support also iptables (see (1.))? And if<br>
so, what do we want to then happen?<br>
<br>
(2.) and (3.) are not conflicting, each needs its own answer.<br>
