I love the idea about having saved Profiles!

It would be so useful to be able to activate certain profiles based on
what task you are doing so as to set boundaries on what applications can
and cannot connect to the internet.

As GUFW works now, I can only have one profile. But users may want
activate different profiles depending on what they are doing on the
computer.

Title:
  Feature request: gufw should be able to enable/disable rules

Status in Gufw:
  Triaged
Status in “gui-ufw” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  gufw 0.20.7-0ubuntu2

  gufw is a great front end for ufw but it still feels very much like
  ufw. You can easily write rules but cannot easily manage the firewall.

  My feature request is to have gufw save rules and then give the use
  the option to turn individual rules on or off. It would be useful to
  manually modify the firewall rules without having to type them in. It
  would also be interesting to have saved profiles which can be selected
  from a menu.

  Currently, you need to completely delete a rule if you would like it
  to be disabled. This means you need to rewrite the rule every time you
  want it active. The other option is to create a profile and save it to
  a file and then load the profile by pointing to a file, (IMO, this
  should be done via a pull-down menu).
