Comment 8 for bug 911383

Yes, it's complicate now,because the code use the service name without
limits. In other way gufw must use the 'standard' command in the preconf
and the user can create anothers configurations :-) but we're thinking on
an intro/wizzard and could be good idea recommend use limit with ssh :-)
I must tell you that this issue will be solved for 13.04 ;-)
Cheers and thanks for the ideas!!! :-D
