To whatever extent is possible, it would be good if the HOWTO used system-config-firewall, since that's the new and future tool. If you find places where s-c-fw falls short, you could file an enhancement bug or two. :-) Shorewall is in the repositories too, so you're good to go there.
I'll certainly look at that, but my experience of the system-config scripts (particularly system-config-printer and system-config-network) is not good.
Also, I think Miles Brennan wanted the HOWTO to be as distribution-independent as possible, given that it does assume the reader is running Fedora. I assume that system-config-* is a RedHat speciality?
