The following rule in direction 'inout'

  <mac srcmacaddr='1:2:3:4:5:6'/>

now drops all traffic from and to the given MAC address.
So far it would have dropped traffic from the given MAC address
and outgoing traffic with the given MAC address, which is not useful
since the packets will always have the VM's MAC address as source
MAC address.
Agreed that a bi-directional filter is morally equivalent to filtering
src on input and dst on output.

Avoid negative logic; this would be better as:
reverse ? "--ip6-destination-port" : "--ip6-source-port"
Yes, fixed this everywhere in the meantime...

s/0/false/, to match the prototype being bool.
ACK, with those tweaks.
Will do and push.

  Thanks.
