I had been jotting down few of my thoughts about similar ideas. Some
of the highlights were like:
1. Firewall control per interface
2. Override main system firewall
3. Connection sharing {to one or more interfaces}
4. Control for systcl parameters specific to interface
5. QoS and ToS
6. Bluetooth interface support
7. Dial-in support :-)
8. Extended dial-out controls to compare with kppp to some extent
Also a new protocol support and mime extension for network
connections. I have also filled a bug (enhancement) request. But my
ideas are prone to flaws, and I'll welcome any of the feedback.
