I mean, in this day and age we should not consider an ACL language well designed if it basically pushes users to use IDENT and DNS for authentication.

we kinda do have dnssec per default. All DNS servers installed per default do DNSSEC. Installing dnssec-trigger makes that even more pervasive. But I agree decisions based on DNS/reverse and IDENT are long dead.
The other 30% (i.e. simple IP range checks), are much better done in a real firewall.
