Rule input quality of life improvements

Open working-name opened this issue 2 years ago β€’ 1 comments

What would you like to add or change?:

  1. I would like the rule input to sport larger edit/delete buttons, to make it easier to tap them.
  2. It would be cool if we could set up + as a shortcut to add a rule. But I'm not entirely sure which one of the 4 types of Add Rule should trigger... this might not be the best suggestion ever.
  3. When I'm done typing my rule I would like to be able to save it by using my keyboard (see below)
  4. When a user doesn't select Allow/Deny, rule stays on "SELECT" (mouse click -> deny by default πŸ‘ ). I would like to be able to save an βœ… Allow with Enter and a β›”Deny with Shift+Enter.
  5. Allow entry to both Outgoing and Incoming rule with the same input - maybe a checkbox at the end or CTRL/CMD + Shift + Enter (CMD for the future when you get to macOS 😍)
    • Or, if that's cluttering things, maybe a drag&drop from one section to the other?

Why do you and others need this?: It would improve the quality of life when inputting rules, add some Accessibility benefits, and make a user fall in love instantly and never want to use any other firewall app again because this is figuratively the cat's pajamas and it will literally never go out of fashion. Latter part might be a little irrelevant.
