Going further along with adding new things to IPFilter, some of
the recent things I've worked on adding code for are:

* selective flushing - to flush just things matching port 80:
  # ipnat -m 'tcp.port=80' -F
  # ipf -m 'tcp.port=80' -Fs
  A list can be given - "tcp.port=25,80".  The full list of currently
  allowed words is:
  ip.addr, ip.p ip.src, ip.dst, tcpc.port, tcp.dport, tcp.sport, udp.port,
  udp.dport, udp.sport

* the matching from flushing also applies to listing active entries:
  # ipnat -m 'port=80' -l
  # ipfstat -m 'port=80' -sl
  will respectively show only NAT or state matcing port 80.

* the above syntax can be used in ipf rules like this:

  pass in exp { 'tcp.port=25,80' } keep state

  (this is really experimental - how many fields are required for it
   to be attractive or is it just a waste of time?)

* Active NAT/state entries can now be printed out in columns:
  # ipnat -O all -l | head -1
  # ipfstat -O all -sl | head -1
  will print out the names of columns.  A list can be given:
  # ipnat -O oldsrcip,newsrcip,olddstip,newdstip -l
  And you can change the name at the top
  # ipfstat -O src=saddr,dst=addr -sl
  or just not print out the heading line at all;
  # ipnat -O all= -l

Comments/thoughts/criticisms welcome.
