If you look at the example /etc/rc.firewall file, it's actually a shell script. You can put comments in a script that performs the ipfw commands. If you make your firewall commands permanent by adding the pertinent lines to /etc/rc.conf, it will expect the file to be a shell script anyway. Once again, look at /etc/rc.firewall for guidance.
