Public bug reported:

Environment: Ubuntu 14.10 - Gufw 14.10.1
------------------

The configuration is basic: 
- Incoming: Deny
- Outgoing: Allow
- Routing: Allow

Now, suppose you need to allow internal communication, for example all
incoming UDP/TCP traffic from a VirtualBox VM on vboxnet0 sitting on a
particular subnet, 192.168.56.0/24 is used here.

Using Gufw to implement this simple setup does NOT work (UDP
communication is still blocked - TCP configuration is not shown):

However, using ufw allows us to attain our goal:
ufw status
Status: active

To                         Action      From
--                         ------      ----
192.168.56.1 1:65535/tcp   ALLOW       192.168.56.0/24
192.168.56.1 1:65535/udp   ALLOW       192.168.56.0/24

This simple configuration allows all UDP/TCP communication in from
192.168.56.0/24 towards the host servers.

The problem is: it is not possible to use Gufw to make that setup, and
once it is done through ufw CLI, it is not possible to display or edit
it within Gufw.

As a summary:
--------------------
- allowing all TCP/UDP communication IN is not possible with Gufw (have I missed something?) 
- displaying/editing some ufw rules is not possible within gufw (have I missed something?)
