[Bug 1621293] [NEW] Feature request: allow adding of 'names' from terminal, or . .

 

Public bug reported:

Imagine one has a bunch of rules to add via terminal. If one does that,
they will show up in `gufu` without names (i.e. without labels) - which
is bad. Yet the alternative is adding the rules manually in `gufu` -
which is laborious (especially since understanding the fields in the
'advanced' tab takes some learning).

So, why not add the ability to add names via the `ufw` command? Well,
perhaps the `ufw` people would have to implement that. In that case: why
not allow names to be added to `ufw`-added rules, *within* `gufu`? I
imagine that doing so would be simple enough.

Mint 18 Cinnamon. Gufu 16.04.1.
