That thought did cross my mind when i was coding this;-> I hate the way
netlink filters are done in user space with iproute2 - dumping 50
objects just so i can get to one. So i used that as my guiding
principle; i have no qualms with the few extra lines.
Actually, I was hoping it would provide motivation for someone else to
do a better filtering scheme (which sits in the kernel).

cheers,
jamal
