That only doesn't work because you've not bothered to just let the end user 
set the firewall zone for a given connection. Leaving it in a "Workstation" 
zone by default just does not work.

If you just leave it to the user to select the firewall zone, and provide them 
with the default zone configuration best for those zones, that's the problem 
solved.
