I pulled this as I said from the Deb service file, I cannot remember the rationale behind waiting for the network to start but I remember something to do with PPPOE connections being potentially problematic for some reason.

I ran this past a Shorewall guru in their IRC but frankly I am not too worried about a brief period of no firewall since I have my services limited to interfaces. I'll have a chat with them shortly.

Also ExecReload executes a reload of shorewall (and the rule set) as intended. Executing a restart achieves the same objective I believe, the only difference is a full restart. Unless you desire a full restart, I'm not seeing an issue as they appear to achieve the same thing.
