Comment 1 for bug 910324

Well, I've simulated this by putting

case "$1" in

    start)

        if [ -d /etc/ufw/before.d ]; then
            # --exit-on-error
            run-parts /etc/ufw/before.d
        fi

        ;;

...

into before.init, which works, but breaks updating since this is a file of the ufw package. To get this really effective, it would have to be defined as a standard, making package maintainers to put their scripts into these directories.

Since ufw supports only a subset of iptables, this is needed to implement functions not covered by ufw, e.g. ipset.
