This should be nfbz#1621, but it's about translating xt to native in
JSON format. All my patch does is extend the xt JSON format a bit. AIUI,
we would have to extend libxtables to provide translations into JSON.

So even with perfect two-ways translation available, JSON interface is
unusable if iptables-nft is in use.

Cheers, Phil
