At least it is not a regression.

DNAT does not accept names currently, and I can guess this is because
of:

Port names can contain pretty much any character except \0, so there is
no way for DNAT, without symmetric delimiters like '[' and ']' for
example, to know from the user specifying "smtp-imap" whether s/he means
the single (fictional) port "smtp-imap", or the range 25--143.

This is good reason :) However, it's a little misleading.
Thank you for answer.

Marcin.
