I can see two possible solutions with "in/out" notation and list:set type: a. The keywords are not permitted at all. b. "in/out" is permitted but "converted" to "src/dst" wherever needed for the member sets, that is all types but hash:net,iface. Solution a. is completely acceptable for me. It can nicely be documented, there's no chance for misunderstanding. Solution b. is also acceptable but it's more controversial: if "in/out" is accepted with list:set type, then it's very hard to explain why it's *not* allowed with every type, when actually "in/out" is allowed then for every type of member sets of list:set type of sets. So solution b. implies that "in/out" is then a general synonym of "src/dst" and should be allowed everywhere. Therefore I'm not really happy with solution b. but I can stomach it. Do you see other possibilities, which produce result independent of the allowed syntax?
