Sure, you can do that, you seem more technically proficient with firewalls than me.

I don't think it makes much sense for people to stamp their feet saying "BUT I LIKED THE OLD WAY OF DOING THINGS" when the people leading the workstation product have identified that the old way of doing things just doesn't work for the majority of people.
