I really don't understand why a core system component such as firewalld is
implemented in Python!
Here, I mostly don't see the reason for it to be running all the time.
Couldn't it be dbus activated, and then go away when it's not needed? Then,
it would matter less what it was written in.
It would loose internal state if it would be D-BUS activated. Also each
call would take a lot longer, which is bad for example for libvirt.
And for reducing space use: I think it might also be nice to break python
2to3 and idle out of the python-libs package.
