Alex, Bill, it's a good news, glad to hear it.

Let me ask even more functionality:

6. Test if entry exist in table:
ipfw table <id> test <item>
It extremely useful in case of big, unordered data in the table - for
example different networks with different mask. Now it's almost
impossible to find out is checked IP occurs in the table or not.

7. Are the any reason to keep use numbers only as table names? The more
tables uses, the harder to distinct tables in quick look at rules. Compare:
    ipfw add [line] allow icmp from "table(1)" to "table(2)"
and something like
    ipfw add [line] allow icmp from "table(trusted)" to "table(backbone)"

Any comments are welcome.
