I haven't tested it with the firewall code. I think I understand the problem and implemented a solution which addresses the issues.

Thanks for your private e-mail, but we would really like to keep the majority of the development public. Would you please address these comments directly to the list. This way, everything can happen above the table since there are a number of legal issues to keep in mind and the more eyes see the progress and discussion, the more variety and concensus can be worked out.
